Baby Got Laugengebäck Lyrics & Chords By Jan Böhmermann
-Leute, das geht so nicht weiter. Deutschland, unser Land, steht doch für nichts mehr in der Welt
-Autos?-Nee, wir sind seit Volkswagen nicht mehr das Autoland
-No more Fahrvergnügen...
-Rassismus! Nazi-Deutschland geht immer
-Nee, nee, Rassismus ist nicht mehr unsere Kernkompetenz. Deutsche begrüßen Ausländer am Bahnhof. Wir sind nicht mehr das Naziland
-Wir brauchen ein USP
-Ja, irgendwas, was in der Welt für Deutschland steht
-Irgendwas, was jeder kennt
-'Ne deutsche Erfindung
-Ja! ...Hmm, aber was könnte das sein?
*Griff zu einem Teller voller Laugengebäck*
-Ich glaub ich hab da 'ne Idee
L-A-U-G-E-N-G-E-B-Ä-C-K
Perfectly tanned, yet elegant
Juicy and crusty, incredibly lusty
Your salty skin, 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 devil's delicious handiwork
Or created by some genius Pastry-Heisenberg? (Oh no)
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 thee - Laugengebäck
Laugengebäck
L-A-U-G-E-N-G-E-B-Ä-C-K
I can't say no
To alkalized dough
Smooth and greasy, kneading goes so 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
L-A-U-G-E-N-G-E-B-Ä-C-K
You come in so many different shapes
Pretzels
Rolls
Breadstick
Even Croissants
Can you imagine: Croissants made out of Pretzel dough
Coated in soda lye
I'm in Laugen heaven
Baby got: Laugengebäck
Don't Laugengebäck in anger
Laugengebäck for good
Gebäck
Gebäck
Gebäck
Gebäck
Gebäck to where you once belonged...
Laugengebäck
