It's actually part of a joke, ya know, the frog comes into the bank for a loan & has a paper weight as collateral. Miss. Paddywhack, the loan officer's assistant, comes into the bank office, sees the paper weight & says, "What's this?" The loan officer goes, "It's a knick-knack, Miss Paddywhack, give the frog a loan."

You and all who answered this question has forever pertized it. Something about playing knick knack on his thumb....what does that mean?!? And after doing this strange act, why did he give the dog a bone? I certainly would not let the freak who wrote this song give my dog the bone. Shhhhesssh!
