I am pretty sure this is kind of referring to the imagination of a boy. Like, a strict mother who wants him to be a proper boy, but secretly this boy wants to be a wizard. I know that I am not getting this out quite right, but maybe you could see what I am trying to get at here.

The singer sounds like one those who like to smoke pot (and apparently opium), play guitar, and live inside their own head. D&D fits that well. It's about escaping reality and responsibility. I like that, wish I could live it that way foreveeer.

I always assumed it was about D&D, because of the magic item Cloak of Elvenkind, and the Magic SpellBooks And the line "Behind All those things that mother said were proper for a boy" fits aswell, because its like hes hiding the fact that he was playing D&D (because D&D isn't exactly smiled upon, and even though more people play than you realize, its still considered... cult type behavior (by religions at least))

Many D&D references, but not all parents look down apon fantacy. Infact, when i play D&D & World Of Darkness (both great role playing games) with my friends, one of my friends dad plays with us.

It is not directly a D&D reference, but Wozniak does relishes fantasy. His parents were about as far from being overbearing and disapproving as you can get. It's not autobiographical. Rebel Sodville was written because of a dream he had. Also- he does not do drugs, dispite the many references.

This song is awesome. Kind of reminds me of Simon and Garfunkel. I think I'm going to listen to it.

It deffinitely has something to do with D&D. The cloak and the books, but it's not necisseraly the strict mother that's driving him away from them. I think it's also a girl.
