At the edge of Ramat Gan there's a special place Where you can stand and smell Chocolate in the air There's a big tall house With three chimneys and no windows And thirty machines inside working all day and night Seventy workers in aprons and mitts Making chocolate of every kind. Chorus: Small chocolate, big chocolate (sho-ko-ko-) Expensive chocolate, cheap chocolate Chocolate with nuts and plain For the rich people, and for us all And the smell is free so all the citizens Stop to sniff the air (mmm.....) The kids stop running in the streets The bus stops at the corner The dogs stop chasing the cats Even the policemen stand near the thieves Everyone gazes up at the chimneys And their noses slowly fill With the sweet smell of chocolate Chorus: Small chocolate, big chocolate... At the edge of Ramat Gan there's a special place Where you can stand and smell Chocolate in the air |

OLOR A CHOCOLATE |
Donde termina Ramat-Gan hay un lugar especial, Allí te puedes parar y oler chocolate
Allí hay una casa muy alta sin ventanas, con tres chimeneas y treinta máquinas trabajando día y noche Y setenta empleados con delantales y guantes preparando chocolate de distintas formas
Estribillo: Chocolate pequeño y grande (sho-ko-ko) chocolate caro y barato chocolate con nueces y común para los ricos, y para todos y el aroma es gratis… y todos los ciudadanos (tu-tu-tu-tu…) se detienen a oler (mmmm…..)
Se detienen los niños que corren en el barrio Se detiene el autobús en la esquina Los gatos dejan de escapar de los perros Y los policías se paran al lado de los ladrones Todos miran las chimeneas y despacito, su nariz se llena con el olor a chocolate
Estribillo: Chocolate pequeño y grande…
Donde termina Ramat-Gan hay un lugar especial Allí te puedes parar y oler chocolate. |
