Chanukah Gelt, for real!
Not candy
A twenty dollar bill
Oh, my...
A twenty dollar bill and why?
Upon what should we contemplate?
Allow me please to explicate
What's the meaning of this Gelt
For peace
Sometimes, blood must be spilt
For life!
Sometimes, a good man dies
What means this money?
Noah, boychick
You won't learn this in Arithmetic!
Money follows certain laws
It's worth how much it's worth because
Somewhere, something's valued less
It's how our blessings come, I guess
Golden, shiny, but never pure
Think from whence your riches stem
Think of someone who is poor
And know you stole this gold from them!
Especially here in the Devil's South!
You rip your gold from a starving man's mouth!
Oh, for Pete's sake dad
Just give him the money
Good, say thank you, honey
Thank you
Noah, never forget
Stuart, play the clarinet
Right!
A happy happy Chanukah night
What a party, what a goose
Fun, huh?
Noah?
Oh, what's the use?
It's cold tonight
My feet are numb
I'm tired waiting for a bus that won't come
