Trouble, oh we got trouble,
Right here in River City!
With a capital "T"
That rhymes with "P"
And that stands for Pool,
That stands for pool.
We've surely got trouble!
Right here in River City,
Right here!
Gotta figger out a way
To keep the young ones moral after school!
Trouble, trouble, trouble, trouble, trouble...

The word pun is of unknown origin, but the source is really not that difficult to see:
Punning is all about utilizing the many facets (faces) of words and ideas to clever, humorous effect. The Hebrew word for face is panim (a plural formation, such that a face is always more than one), which in turn (heh) is rooted in the word for corner, turning a corner, angle (pinah).
A pun is all about making many faces. As a matter of fact, the stone the builders rejected is for the head of the corner, l'rosh pinah.
Isaac means laughter, and God told Abraham that in Isaac shall his seed be called.
Some people have no sense of humor though. What can you do.
