Facts: 1924 novelty song, covered by Lonnie Donegan in 1958, UK number three, US top five. Originally "Spearmint," renamed "Chewing Gum" over a trademark dispute after the BBC refused to risk playing it as-is. Renamed track still hit top ten. No documented deeper meaning beyond music-hall/skiffle novelty humor. Reading Bitcoin theology or licensing genius into it is speculation, not analysis, on both sides.
