Round and round the cobbler's bench
The monkey chased the weasel,
The monkey thought 'twas all in fun
Pop! Goes the weasel.

My sister and I used to sing this growing up......

This song was written in 1936, and introduced at a Scout Jamboree in Melbourne, Australia. In case you're wondering, a kookaburra is an Australian bird, and a "gum tree" is what Americans know as a eucalyptus. The "gum drops" that the kookaburra eats in the song are beads of the resinous sap.

And...I guess thats the lesson for today....professor laugh
