"Pop Goes the Weasel" is an English nursery rhyme first published in 1853 that is covered by Dave Seville and The Chipmunks in The Alvin Show episode Hillbilly Son and the albums Let's All Sing with The Chipmunks, The Chipmunks 20 All Time Golden Greats and Greatest Hits: Still Squeaky After All These Years (2007).

Lyrics

Alvin:
You sing this one David.

Dave:
Really fellas?

Theodore:
Sure.

Simon:
Yeah.

Dave:
Okay I will.

Around around the mulberry bush
The monkey chased the weasel
The monkey thought it was a joke

The Chipmunks:
Pop goes the weasel!

Dave:
Penny for a spool of thread
Penny for a needle
That's the way the money goes

The Chipmunks:
Pop goes the weasel!

Alvin:
That was pretty bad Seville.

Dave:
I think you're right Alvin.
You and Simon and Theodore sing.
And you kids at home do the pops.
Go.

The Chipmunks:
Around around the mulberry bush
The monkey chased the weasel
The monkey thought it was a joke

Penny for a spool of thread
Penny for a needle
That's the way the money goes

Pop goes the weasel!

Pop goes the weasel!
Pop goes the weasel!
Pop
