Lyrics:

All around the cobbler's bench
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.

The painter needs a ladder and brush,
The artist needs an easel;
The dancers need a fiddler's tune
POP! Goes the weasel.

I've no time to sit and sigh
Or to tell the reason why
Kiss me quick, I'm off, good-bye.
POP! Goes the weasel.
