“Crab” is the fifth song off of The Green Album.
In a 2006 fan interview, Weezer lead singer Rivers Cuomo said that “Crab” is “about a heterosexual guy’s frustration with the opposite sex.”
[Verse 1]
Crab if you want her, she won't be comin'
Down (down) down (down)
Down (down) down (down)
Crab if you want her, she won't be coming down
[Verse 2]
Crab if you need it, she put her knickers
On (on) on (on)
On (on) on (on)
Crab if you need it, she put her knickers on
[Chorus]
She said she's feelin' lonely
And I say that's okay
She won't be comin' back 'round here, no way
[Interlude]
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh
[Chorus]
She said she's feelin' lonely
And I say that's okay
She won't be comin' back 'round here, no way
[Verse 3]
Crab at the booty, t'ain't gonna do no
Good (good) good (good)
Good (good) good (good)
Crab at the booty, t'ain't gonna do no good
[Outro]
No, crab at the booty, t'ain't gonna do no good
