[gwendolyn, spoken]
now, bitsy, i said my tassels were tingling and they’re never wrong
this place is a charity powder keg

[bitsy, spoken]
well, how do we set it off?
what’s that sound?

[gwendolyn, spoken]
that’s the sound of money…

[gwendolyn]
here we go, this is it!
it’s time, grab your pens
can you feel it in the air?
electricity is everywhere!

[bitsy, spoken]
what the h+ll is happening?

[helen, spoken]
i don’t know. these people are weird

[gwendolyn]
look at you, mrs. wells
look at you, mrs. cook
are your fingers getting itchy
on your old checkbook?
it’s a golden opportunity
you cannot overlook
write a check
write a check
write a check!
it’s so thrilling and exciting
and so terribly inviting
write a check
[rich people]
what the heck!

[gwendolyn]
any number you can get
fill it out on the line
we are runnin’ out of time
you will all feel fine
when you write your check

[bitsy, spoken]
my goodness, i had no idea this was so exciting

[gwendolyn, spoken]
leave it to me. we’re just getting started

[gwendolyn]
just wallow in their beauty
just gaze into their eyes
these frisky little foxes
always ready to surprise
they just need a little push
only money can provide

[rich people]
only money can provide
and that we’ve got!
[gwendolyn]
then your philanthropic tendencies
will fill me up with pride

[rich people]
feels so good inside

[bitsy, spoken]
i kinda want to donate some money now. kidding. but this is fun

[gwendolyn]
the more you give
the more you get
those little darlings won’t forget
they’ll proliferate with attitude
and do it out of gratitude
i’m running out of platitudes
and now i’m out of breath

[gwendolyn and rich people]
write a number on the line
we are running out of time
and we’ll all feel fine
when we write our check!

[bitsy, spoken]
we need more to get you off the list. i mean, the foxes off the endangered species list
[gwendolyn, spoken]
i know how we can raise twice as much

[bitsy, spoken]
twice as much? how?

[gwendolyn, spoken]
light the match

[bitsy, spoken]
what?

[gwendolyn]
there’s a stipulation
but it doesn’t have a catch
all you have to do
one little tiny thing
barely any effort
and it doubles all the cash
all you have to do

[gwendolyn and rich people]
light the match!

[helen, spoken]
what’s ‘light the match’?

[bitsy, spoken]
some wackadoodle charity gibberish that’s going to get me higher on the magazine’s list

[gwendolyn]
everyone here thinks the same thing
let’s chip in whatever we can!

[rich people]
and we can!

[gwendolyn]
the sky’s the limit
and there is no gimmick
all ya have to do is step right up
and raise your little hand

[bitsy, spoken]
remind me, what happens when i light the match?

[gwendolyn, spoken]
the number doubles!

[bitsy, spoken]
oh, yes, of course! and that’s all i have to do?

[gwendolyn, spoken]
mm+hm!

[gwendolyn]
you see it’s very simple
only elementary math

[gwendolyn and rich people]
all you have to do
one little tiny thing

[gwendolyn]
a simple proclamation that’s so easy to dispatch

[gwendolyn and rich people]
step up to the mic
light the match!
