  General Comment:dude, i just hit a bowl of purple kush, and i just realized exactly what this song is about. this song is about blazing. hes dreaming in the morning, day, and night. meaning hes smoking. i think dreaming means like when you daydream or think alot when ur baked.
  
  "When I start to feel the feeling comin' over me
  I soon forget all about responsibility
  I walk around in a wide-awake daydream
  Things are better out here than they might seem"
  
  i think those statements pretty much prove that he's singing about smoking pot.

    I was never sure what to make of this song. After smoking earlier though, it came up on shuffle, and at the exact line "When I start to feel the feelin comin' over me" I started to think the exact same thing dcis thought. I was curious if anyone else thought the same, so I came on here. Rivers is a genius.

  General Comment:Dreamin' is an excellent song. A clear masterpiece. I would still like to hear 'This is the Way' though...
  
  To me, this song is about not wanting to grow up or take on the responsibilities that come with life. The character that this song describes just wants to dream all day long, and no t have to take on any responsibilities.
  
  This is evident through the whole song. During the chorus of the first part of the song, he describes what people are telling him. How he needs to do good in school, and pay some bills so he can make it in life. But all he wants to do is sit around and relax.

  General Comment:It's a very good song, and from what I read, Rivers had to fight to get this one to stay on the album, I'm glad he did. Not the best track on Red Album, but by far not the worst.

  General Comment:After listening to The Red Album several albums, this song is clearly the stand-out. This is easily one of the best Weezer songs. I'm glad that Rivers can still write a song of this quality. Lyrically, it fits in well with the retrospective perspective that Rivers give of his metalhead youth. Just as Rivers said in the opening track "I will learn by studying the lessons in my dreams." Pat's drumming, Brian's interlude and the build-up at the end with the harmonies are the real highlights.
