The Yeast Song

We’re on a trip aboard a ship to salvage humankind
We gotta not go out of our collective freakin’ mind
So give a yelp and drink to help the colony survive (Wooo!)
'Cause that’s the ruse we choose to use to keep the yeast alive!

We’re on a trip aboard a ship to salvage humankind
We gotta not go out of our collective freakin’ mind
So give a yelp and drink to help the colony survive (Wooo!)
…We mill the malted barley grain until the gristy bits remain
…A properly heated water splash converts the starch into a mash
And that’s the ruse we choose to use to keep the yeast alive!

…We mill the malted barley grain until the gristy bits remain
…A properly heated water splash converts the starch into a mash
…The lautering yields a sweetened musk and separates the wort from husk
…We boil and boil until she stops extractin’ bitter from the hops
And that’s the ruse we choose to use to keep the yeast alive!

…Give ‘er the yeast and make with ventin’ cause now’s the time to start fermentin’
