Weasel wrote a really good song He wrote it with an eagle They formed a band and the band was called Pop goes the weasel They played and sang about a goofy bird It was blues for a seagull They made it swing and they made it big Pop goes the weasel Now they're on the radio The DJ drops the needle Play that record again and again Pop goes the weasel They had a fancy life, they had a fancy car Their butler was a beagle Swimming pools and movie stars Pop goes the weasel Now they need a second song To keep up with The Beatles Are one hit wonders all they are? Pop goes the weasel Come on, weasel Show us what you got man ♪ They could not write anymore songs To play for all the people People soon forgot about them Pop goes the weasel Now they're playin' for a penny on the London road But busking is illegal That's the way the money goes Pop goes the weasel Pop goes the weasel Pop goes the weasel
