crab diner
stinky kind of place
a joint to get those beasts shoved in your face
they carry those crustaceans by the case
crab diner
stinky kind of place
crab diner
to the pier, folks flock
it smells just like the bait shop on the dock
though looking weird, the taste is hard to knock
crab diner
to the pier, folks flock
crab diner
multi-legged things
they look so big when first the waiter brings
but most of it, back on your plate, you fling
crab diner
multi-legged things
crab diner
eating's them's a chore
you have to really work to reach the core
you nibble on the tiny bits you tore
crab diner
eating them's a chore
crab diner
leave that place alone
there's lots of other places you can roam
better yet, just cook your crabs at home
crab diner
leave that place alone

I liked this. Shame crabs are cooked live though. Poor things!
thanks jason...no wonder they call grouchy people "crabs"
I go to NICK's at RockawayBeach in Pacifica every month, to get my hot crab sandwich, with eggplant tempura strips on the side, please!
thanks HotCupCakes...sounds divine
I've never had crabs, er, well, I mean to say I've never eaten them...Leslie Neilson made 'em funny, in his movie...looks like a lot of work for little treats...funny parody, that also gives good advice.
Oh sir, it truly is divine . . . I let someone else bend the legs & crack the shells ! it's worth the $20.
"but most of it, back on your plate, you fling": and hence why I rarely go crabbing anymore... that and all the posted signs in the water. King or snow crabs are worth the effort though. Nicely done, alvin.
Ok . . . Try fresh, cold crab on a thick piece of California sour dough, lathered with fresh butter !! eaten at Miramar Beach ! Ohh, I'm hungry . . .. .so verry hungry . . .
Can't eat seafood, makes my tongue swell up, grrr. "it smells just like the bait shop on the dock" - yep! Just about sums it up! Funny job, alvin :)
thanks AFW....yep, too much work...LilCrabCakes...you got the right idea....thanks red ant...have to try those sometime....thanks CrabWitch...go eat !....thanks peregrin....sorry about your tongue
Alvin - They are such a chore to eat - I lived near Cheasapeak Bay a few years back and the blue crab was king there. The best place tI found to catch them was from a dock at the Naval Academy in Annapolis. And you really work for a meal. One could starve to death eating these things. Great take on an old classic.
thanks guy
