Pop-Corn

Pop! Pop! Poppetty-Pop!

Shake and rattle and rattle and shake

The golden grains as they bounce and break

To fluffy puffiness- Poppety Pop!

Bursting and banging the popper's top!

Poppety-Pop!

Pop! Pop!

The yellow kernels, oh, see them grow

White as cotton or flakes of snow!

Pop! Pop!

O-ho, how they frolic and fly about

And turn themselves suddenly inside out!

Pop-Pop-Poppety! Pop-Pop-Pop!

The popper's full and we'll have to stop;

Pile the bowl with the tempting treat,

Children, come, it's time to eat!
