    "comment": "This song, written by guitarist Rick Nielsen,  is about a paranoid man who is convinced that his dreams are being monitored, and it's driving him insane. No matter what he does, the \"Dream Police\" are always inside his head and waiting to arrest him.\n--\nA string section played on this track, which added an element of horror - those violin stabs are reminiscent of what we hear during the shower scene in the movie Psycho. When the song was developing, those parts were done with a keyboard arpeggiator as heard in \"Surrender,\" but when they got the budget, they hired the strings.",
