Don’t say “nuts”
About the song
Before Winterstock a couple of weeks ago, I went into a song writing frenzy, sorting out three new song lyrics in a few hours. This is the second song, and it is (drum roll) yet another biscuit song! Them’s grand, yer know.
Best sung to the amazingly ear-wormy song “All the lovers” by Kylie Minogue, one of my favourite pop tracks, this wasn’t a very challenging song to write. Much like biscuits aren’t that challenging to eat. They somehow vanish by themselves… The biggest challenge was LOTRO’s ridiculous “naughty word”-filter, which triggered on the word “nuts”. Geez. ‘s like a hobbit isn’t allowed to eat well anymore. That’s just… well… nuts.
Anyways, enjoy! Crunch along! If yer would like to see the video to the original song (warning: may not be suited for work), yer can do so below.
All the biscuits
Food
The grandest thing I know, is lots of food
For breakfast, supper, tea, it tastes so good
For all my favourite meals here in the
Shire, Shire, Shire, Shire
Let’s eat
Fill our largest plates and we will eat
But save one thing for me, it tastes so sweet
Tastiest of treasures in the
Shire, Shire, Shire…
All the biscuits
That you baked today
I ate them all
Just now
Oh so tasty
I wish for a dozen jars more
I’ll eat them all
All the biscuits
Tea
Brew it strong and dark and we’ll have tea
Add a splash of milk and you’ll agree
Nothing is as grand as lots of
Honey, honey, honey, honey
Bake
So hungry is the hobbit, so yer bake
Sate my inner cravings, not for steak
Butter, flour and nuts and lots of
Honey, honey, honey
All the biscuits
That you baked today
I ate them all
Just now
Oh so tasty
I hope for a dozen jars more
I’ll eat them all
All the biscuits
Bake
So hungry is the hobbit, so yer bake
Come sate my inner cravings, not for steak
Butter, flour and nuts and lots of
honey, honey, honey, honey, honey, honey
All the biscuits
That you baked today
I ate them all
Just now
Oh so tasty
I hope for a dozen jars more
I’ll eat them all
All the biscuits
All the lovers
Here’s the absolutely brilliant (but best avoided in settings where lots of near-nudity is frowned upon) video to Kylie’s original song. Enjoy! I wonder if this is what the streets will look like when the pandemic is over?
Nah… probably no floating white elephants.
Kylie Minogue – All the lovers
Love this!
Happy to hear that, thank yer kindly!
As a frequent composer of parodies and lover of Hobbits I adore this. Very well done. Great tune to set it to as well. Now I have to write my own Hobbit song :D
Thank yer! I look forward to seeing yer own hobbit song!
