In the Garage is an emo alternative rock song by Weezer. It was recorded in the summer of 1993 and released as track 8 on the blue album on 1994-05-10. The song was written, composed, and sung by Rivers Cuomo. The song is pretty basic consisting of only two verses and a single chorus repeated four times.
The song is about being in solitude with your thoughts and hobbies in a safe place where you don't have to worry about being judged or ridiculed by outsiders.

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.
