About

This episode of Dances Moving, and the song itself is about the dance move the Crab, chosen because of Baltimore’s history with crabs – although all I could find on this matter is the song Miss Baltimore Crabs from Hairspray. The song shifts between puns about the anatomy of a crab to patriotism abo...

Crab Lyrics

[Intro]
Here's that new thing that you're choosing
Now for Dances Moving!
Episode 3: Crab

Welcome friends, I'm BDG
And I'll teach you how to dance properly
Gotta use dance to express your brains
Like when you're happy and thinkin' 'bout trains
I use dance to show my hometown's fab
I'm from Balti' so I do the Crab
Are you ready? Here we go
3.. 2.. 1.. let's Crab

[Verse 1]
Check me out, looking like I'm at the Chesapeake
Surprise baby, it turns out that I'm just a freak
Thighs spread, eyes wild, you better pause now
Don't come too close when my claws out

I'm from Baltimore, the biggest city in the world
No exaggeration: the best in the nation
We got the man-woman out in front of Penn Station
And I identify as a bit crustacean!

[Chorus]
Peep my crabs, all my peeps is crabs
Takin' all we got with our pinchy grabs
We're fightin' with our chitin and we're on the grand tour
Watch your back, bucko, we from Baltimore

Peep my crabs, all my peeps is crabs
Takin' all we got with our pinchy grabs
We're fightin' with our chitin and we're on a grand tour
Watch your back, bucko, we from Baltimore

[Verse 2]
Make you about-face with my carapace
Step back, king-crab, and know your place
We blue crabs fly, even when you're hatin'
Let me lay back, and show you my apron

Blowin' your minds with my lateral spines
Don't worry 'cause it happens to me all of the times
Look into the bay, you'll see our chelipeds pass and
When did this song become an anatomy class? (I don't know)

New York is pretty neat, but it sure lacks
A couple friendly faces with a crunchy thorax
Salty Balti' is my fave, and the people are the best, yo
But as a dancer I feel that I have to go

But my friends are here, they're neat as heck, man
I got a sweet date and... not right now, Declan
I gotta follow my dreams, is it time to move?
If I go will I keep my exoskeleton groove?

[Chorus]
Peep my crabs, all my peeps is crabs
Takin' all we got with our pinchy grabs
We're fightin' with our chitin
And we're on a grand tour
Watch your back bucko, we from Baltimore

I said, peep my crabs, all my peeps is crabs
Takin' all we got with our pinchy grabs
God, I love this city but I've been thinkin' more
That I might have to move out of Baltimore

[Outro]
Great job everyone
We'll see you next week for more
Dances Moving!
