/ˌpɑːp ɡəʊz ðə ˈwiːzl/
- a popular British song in the 19th century, still sung today though mainly by children. Nobody is sure what the title means, and it may be simply a nonsense phrase. The first verse is: “Half a pound of twopenny rice,Half a pound of treacle;That's the way the money goes,Pop goes the weasel!”
一首 19 世纪流行的英国歌曲,至今仍在演唱,但主要由儿童演唱。没有人知道标题的含义,它可能只是一个无意义的短语。第一节是:“半磅两便士米,半磅糖蜜;钱就是这样走的,黄鼠狼爸爸走!”
