Emotions
A & C Lyrics

Carcinization is an example of convergent evolution in which a crustacean evolves into a crab-like form from a non-crab-like form
Carcinization is when a crustacean evolves into a crab-like form, which is an example of convergent evolution in biology, where different organisms evolve similar physical characteristics.

The word was introduced into evolutionary biology as 'one of the many attempts of Nature to evolve the crab'
The term 'carcinization' was introduced in evolutionary biology as a way to describe how Nature has attempted to evolve the crab multiple times by convergent evolution.

Across the oceans, I still feel
Despite being far away,

Crabstick emotions for you
I have strong emotions for you that can be likened to a crabstick, which is a seafood delicacy made from processed fish but resembles crab meat.

I still feel crabstick emotions
I continue to have these strong feelings for you that can be compared to the imitation crab meat in crabsticks that maintains its shape despite being processed.

Pull up on you in a boat, make you go bloop
I want to surprise you by approaching you in a boat and making a playful sound effect like 'bloop.'

Pull up on you with that carcinization
I want to surprise you with a metaphorical 'carcinization' or transformation of our relationship, making it more similar to the stable and familiar form of a crab.

Throw a side of butter in the water just for two
I want to add butter, a commonly paired ingredient with crab, to the water for two people's enjoyment during our meal.

I wouldn't go crabbing for any-crabby but you
I wouldn't want to go crabbing, or catching crabs, with anyone else but you.

Date night in the surf
Our romantic evening together will be spent in the water or on the beach.

Yeah, she's a cute she-crab, but she got a pincer like ow
While she is attractive, she has a pincer, like a crab, that can hurt me.

Even when I get home
Even after I leave your presence,

My nose can't forget the smell of her pheromones
I can't forget the alluring scent she exudes naturally through her pheromones.

You're a crab up in a pot, but what you gon'
You are in a difficult situation, like a crab in hot water, but what are you going to do?

Say to me who loves you?
What would you say to someone who loves you deeply, like me?

You know I'm trawling for you out in the sea
I am actively searching for you, like a fisherman using a trawl net to catch fish, out in the vast sea.

Yeah, I'm trawling on my hands and knees
I am searching so intently for you that I am crawling on my hands and knees like a crab.

Let's meet in my coral reef
Let's meet in a special place that I consider as 'my coral reef', where we can have a memorable experience together.

Crustacean date night dreams
I have dreams for our date night that include activities associated with crustaceans like eating seafood, or finding crabs on the beach.

Want you to eat a little algae with me
I want to share a unique experience with you by enjoying some algae together, which is a food source for some types of crabs.

Don't want me a land crab, naw
I don't want to be with someone who is like a 'land crab', or someone who is boring and mundane.

Just want you and your cute little sand crab claws
I just want to be with you and your cute little physical qualities that resemble the claws of a sand crab.

That's the type of emotion that I feel, the emotion that I feel is a crabstick emotion

Across the oceans, I still feel
No matter the distance between us,

Crabstick emotions for you
My strong feelings for you can only be compared to the complex emotions people typically associate with eating crabstick seafood.

Across the oceans, I still feel crabstick emotions
Despite being so far apart, my emotions for you persist and can only be compared to the taste experience of eating crabstick.
