Album Version
Gelt melts
Gelt melts
Gelt melts

Just because it looks like funny money
In your pocket it's chocolate runny
Heat's the enemy, it's not your friend
Golden coins melting in your hand

Everyone knows chicks love chocolate
Fires them up like a bottle rocket
Rip the tin off right away
I think you know what we're trying to say

You gotta get it while you can
'Cause it won't last long
We don't claim to understand
But we're not wrong
And your good thing will be gone

Gelt melts
Gelt melts
Gelt melts

Don't throw it at your baby brother
Better run now, here comes your mother
Comin' at you with a wooden spoon
Still covered with her chicken soup

Grandma's couch with the plastic coating
Fifty coins later, stomach's bloating
If goys can eat a chocolate bunny
Why can't we eat chocolate money?

You gotta get it while you can
'Cause it won't last long
We don't claim to have the answer
In this song
But your good thing will be gone

Gelt melts
Gelt melts
Gelt melts
Gelt melts
