A cruncher of a song!
About the song
Best sung to the tune of Muse’s brilliantly bonkers “Pressure” (see even more brilliantly bonkers video below), this was one of me 30-minute challenges: Try wrap up new song lyrics in less than half an hour. In this case, I made it! Which is grand, because we had to perform the song the same night, at the BOAT “Ode to Old Bloodtusk”-concert in Oldfurlong before yule.
Not my most original lyrics, perhaps, but that’s how it goes when you sing about your favourite subject. In my case: biscuits!
If yer want more song lyrics of mine, have a peek inside me songbook.
My biscuits
I’m cloaked in the dark, you can’t see me
I roam like a wolf, both wild and free
No challenge to huge, no task to hard
I’ll seek out all the treasure under yer guard
Keep secrets at bay and lock yer door
But here I come, sneaking cross the floor
So ma, understand I’ll claim what’s mine
The treasure upon which I will dine
Sweet and crunchy
Sweet and crunchy
Sweet and crunchy
My biscuits
My biscuits
My ma will grumble and scold
But fortune favours the bold
My biscuits
My biscuits
So sweet and crunchy they are
They are me favourite by far
My ma bakes the finest biscuits around
But when I demand some, watch her frown
No matter how much I fuss and beg
“No sweets til yer eaten all yer veg”
My fortunes are only mine to make
I’ll get all the biscuits she can bake
Sweet and crunchy
Sweet and crunchy
Sweet and crunchy
My biscuits
My biscuits
My ma will grumble and scold
But fortune favours the bold
My biscuits
My biscuits
So sweet and crunchy they are
They are me favourite by far
Pressure
