First published in England around 1853, this lively nursery rhyme was also a popular dance tune. The phrase 'pop goes the weasel' is thought to be Cockney rhyming slang, though children have enjoyed its surprise ending for generations.
Full Lyrics
All around the mulberry bush, The monkey chased the weasel, The monkey thought 'twas all in fun, Pop! goes the weasel. A penny for a spool of thread, A penny for a needle, That's the way the money goes, Pop! goes the weasel. All around the mulberry bush, The monkey chased the weasel, The monkey stopped to scratch his head, Pop! goes the weasel. Half a pound of tuppenny rice, Half a pound of treacle, Mix it up and make it nice, Pop! goes the weasel.
