Plunder the Biscuit Jar
Hunger grows in darkness tonight
I sneak out me bedroom door
Now is the time, I plan to go
Plunder the biscuit jar
Ma’s asleep and snoring loud
As I tiptoe down the hall
Joined by me dog in the kitchen as we
Plunder the biscuit jar
Honey oats with a golden hue
We will eat the whole night through
Crumbs all around as we crunch and chew
Plunder the biscuit jar
There on the shelf the treasure awaits
Tempting me above
Climb a chair while me dog waits below
Plunder the biscuit jar
Jar in hand I giggle with joy
But I stumble bad
Barks and yells, I fall with a crash
Sunder the biscuit jar, oh no
Honey oats with a golden hue
We will eat the whole night through
Crumbs all around as we crunch and chew
Plunder the biscuit jar
Thundering steps says Ma’s on her way
Looks at us and sighs
Plain to see what our plan was tonight
Plunder the biscuit jar
Smiling soft she tells us ter sit
Pours us ice-cold milk
Brings the secret stash and we all
Plunder the biscuit jar, oh yes
Honey oats with a golden hue
We will eat the whole night through
Crumbs all around as we crunch and chew
Plunder the biscuit jar
Plunder the biscuit, plunder the biscuit jar
