Personal
During my geeky introverted childhood, I fell in love with this song as I not only related to the desire to be left alone in my room, but also shared an appreciation with some of the hobbies listed including Dungeons & Dragons and X-Men, although I've never been a big fan of Kiss, and while I've always wanted to have musical talent, I do not.
In particular, I enjoy the harmonica opening that is repeated later on electric guitar, and the lyric, "I write these stupid words, and I love every one!" as well as the first sentence of the chorus, "In the garage, I feel safe, no one cares about my ways."
Lyrics
I've got a Dungeon Master's Guide I've got a 12-sided die I've got Kitty Pryde and Nightcrawler too Waiting there for me Yes I do, I do I've got posters on the wall My favorite rock group Kiss I've got Ace Frehley I've got Peter Criss Waiting there for me Yes I do, I do In the garage, I feel safe No one cares about my ways In the garage where I belong No one hears me sing this song In the garage I've got an electric guitar I play my stupid songs I write these stupid words And I love every one Waiting there for me Yes I do, I do In the garage, I feel safe No one cares about my ways In the garage where I belong No one hears me sing this song In the garage, in the garage, yah! In the garage, I feel safe No one cares about my ways In the garage where I belong No one hears me sing this song In the garage, I feel safe No one laughs about my ways In the garage where I belong No one hears me No one hears me No one hears me No one hears me No one hears me sing this song
