Hey
Perfectly tanned, yet elegant
Juicy and crusty, incredibly lusty
Your salty skin (mmh), yeasty sin!
Fragrant and tender, I surrender!
I am obsessed with you and totally obedient.
Who came up with your magical ingredients?
Are you the devils delicious handiwork
Or created by some genius Pastry-Heisenberg?
I In 1477 you descended from heaven,
Onto the griddle of your maker,
Some medieval Swabian baker.
You bathed yourself in lye
- Nobody knows why.
Fluffy and warm: the Queen of pastries was born.
A secret ancient German recipe
Mingling ordinary baking with chemistry.
World's favourite alkaloidal snack!
All hail to the:
Laugengebäck!

I can't say no
To alkalized dough.
Smooth and gready, kneading goes to easy.
Drop it over night in sodium hydroxide
Sprinkled with salt
Lauge, that's what it's called!
Flour, water, salt, yeast, sugar, lye and butter
Laugengebäck makes my heart go aflutter!
Dip your dough in my alkaline solution.
Let's start an oven revolution!
Laugengebäck!

Laugengebäck!
You come in so many different shapes
Pretzels.
Rolls.
Breadsticks.
Even Croissants.
Can you imagine: Croissants made out of Pretzels dough
Coated in soda lye.
I'm in Lougen heaven!
Laugengebäck!

Baby got: Laugengebäck!
