Ween - What Deaner Was Talkin' About Lyrics

I was searching for fubar deaner and came across this. Doesnt seem related

This band is CRIMINALLY underrated

This weird dude showed me this song and it’s pretty good but the album picture is kinda odd

Thx for the thing ! Thx

Reminds me of Big Star

Just like The Beatles, all of their songs are timeless <3

This song feels a bit like George Harrison's post-Beatles music from the mid 70s.

Very underrated cut on the album, one of my favorites honestly

thank you matpat sans

Jamie Turnbull's Wide Eyed World. One of my favourite skateboarding video's. Fully English.

Erm.....Sound and Vision too.

This sounds oddly like the eagles

Who else is listening to this when they stressed

If I were king I'd wear a ring....

Pearl this was me and you

Damn
No

The wash is out, it's hanging up
And all I have is nothing
Nothing to do, nothing to say
I think I must be dreaming
The sun comes up and I'm all washed out
Is this what Deaner was talkin' about
I don't think I will ever return again my friend
If I was king I'd wear a ring
And never hurt my people
I'd stay alert and dress to kill
I might even slip you something
The sun comes up and I'm all washed out
Is this what Deaner was talkin' about
I don't think I will ever return again my friend
The sun comes up and I'm all washed out
Is this what Deaner was talkin' about
I don't think I will ever return again my friend
I do not think I will ever return again, my friend [2x]

One of my all time ween songs for sure. I always applied it to depression but apparently it's about anxiety. Makes me tear up a little when I hear it.

Fu k you all I love you

I love you too :)

I couldn't care less about you two..

Jules Gilmour you suck

When I listen to this song, so do my neighbor's. 😂

https://youtu.be/s8mP2jN6bJI is this like that pink Floyd thing I heard about?

Absolutely love this song! It's hard to pick a top track from Chocolate and Cheese, but this one is definitely up there. The transition between this and "Don't Shit Where You Eat" leaves you feelin juuust right.

Ween quietly wrote one of the best pop songs ever here

Thank you!

I used to be 15 and live in Virginia. 1995.

Always over too soon. I think it's a morning after tripping tune. Not necessarily acid/shrooms (But likley). some earth shattering revelation that resolves into some soft morning after; wash is out, hanging up. After the ecstasy, the laundry. I could listen to this a hundred times.

Always felt the same way, this song captures the morning after an epic trip like no other

Hey anyone who reads this, would you like to discuss the album with me?

sure. i think this is my favorite song. which one is yours?

Pretty much any Ween fan is gonna want to talk about anything Ween. Love this fan base

C'mon man.. You've got takers..

The wash is out
It's hanging up
And all I have
Is nothing
Nothing to do
Nothing to say
I think I must be dreaming

The sun comes up and I'm all washed out
Is this what Deaner was talkin' about
I don't think I will ever return again my friend

If I was king
I'd wear a ring
And never hurt my people
I'd stay alert
And dress to kill
I might even slip you something

The sun comes up and I'm all washed out
Is this what Deaner was talkin' about
I don't think I will ever return again my friend

The sun comes up and I'm all washed out
Is this what Deaner was talkin' about
I don't think I will ever return again my friend

I listened to this probably five times a day every day in 10th grade

6laderunner when was that?

Jeff Patton in 10th grade

“Aaron wrote that song about me, it’s one of the many songs with our names in the title, ‘Leave Deaner Alone,’ ‘I Saw Gener Cryin’ in His Sleep,’ ‘Gener’s Gone,’ etc. But anyway, that song is about anxiety, before I even knew that the shitty feeling had a name to it. I used to have massive panic attacks in my early 20′s, especially in the morning, or late at night when I would have trouble sleeping, unreasonable fears about life, ridiculous, wild, horrible fantasy trips that ended in catastrophe. It’s an awful thing if you’ve lived with it and can relate. Aaron and I lived together back then and I would talk to him about it and he was very good at chilling me out. Eventually everyone experiences it at some point, usually before traveling, or before having to publicly speak, whatever. Acute anxiety is a bitch though, it means you live in a constant state of of panic, ‘fight or flight’ syndrome they call it too. Anyway, I guess Aaron got a good dose of it himself one day and wrote that song. I was able to overcome it in time by doing the work, a lot of reading, therapy, all that shit. It’s been many years now since I’ve felt that way, except in tiny doses, during times that would rattle anyone’s cage. Now I can spot it, see it for what it really is, and just let it pass. Let it pass man.”
-Mickey on this song.

I love this song a lot, but I had no idea why I found it so relieving. For me, it's one of those songs that can stop the world, which is saying a lot. I looked at the comments and found this. I can't explain properly, but this makes me feel so good right now.

Its such a great song! I'm glad Mickey explained it, I have constant anxiety and panic attacks but didn't know what Gener was talking about. I hope I can beat it like Mick has, I kinda doubt it tho.

I had no idea.. I adored ween in my 20's.. in my forties I actually experienced a long-lasting array of panic attacks and knowing this song is about that bass it much more comfortable.. it was my party song in the twenties and my comfort song now in my 40s

thanks, now i'm crying

One of my favorites :)

I Tear up over this one, anybody thats been there knows, its hard to explain

Mike Rudd I know exactly my friend, I know

This song boosts my anxiety when i listen to it.. but i want to

definetely seems to be a description of trying psychadelics for the first time.. the sun comes up im all washed out this is what Deaner was talking about lol...

"I do not think, I will ever return, again my friend"----that feeling after a truly introspective trip, where you've "figured it out", and think you'll be good from then on out......only to sleep and wake up having forgotten.....I think some stuff stays with you for sure, but most of it must be realized sober to really grab hold

That's just my experience of course

+daniel butler
To me, that line reminds me of the really intense parts of a trip where your sense of reality is so wildly altered that you can't imagine you'll ever be able to go back to your everyday mindset. I think this feeling causes a lot of bad trips sometimes, people thinking they're going to be permanently tripping and whatnot. But yeah, I agree that part of tripping is your sober reckoning with what you experienced/realized while tripping. I can definitely say that psychedelics changed the way I think, and the way I live my life and interact with people. It's something that is hard to even explain to someone who has never tripped. Just as, before I ever tripped, I would hear people telling me it's "life-changing" but didn't really understand what that meant until I experienced it.

Do you know ween? Lol

@daniel butler I hate when iforget it.

Great song saw them live at turf

Benjamin Wasylina St Paul, respect

ween is an acquired taste,I'm so grateful for those people.....

William Carter truth

yoU ARE MY DADDIES

The great prophets deaner and gener have spoken!

Four people will never return, again my friend.

Hot damn that's a rockin body. Love this song. Long live the Boog.

Right...

Excellent song!

whoever the 2 people are that disliked this. i feel very sorry for you that you cant appreciate the uniqueness and inner meaning and all around blissfulness of music with such raw and rare talent as this

+6laderunner we must. or they* will eventually group together and try to kill us.

Daniel Chiotis It's a Ween video, dude, not a revolutionary cause.

6laderunner I will dislike anyone that talks shit about this song or Ween!

nona dorsky the dislikes were just salty haters

@6laderunner Steve Wright calls extras in the movie of your life.

1:04 Solo always tugs at my heart...

forreal. sounds so blissful

hawaiidispenser I spontaneously start wissleing right there

Why do we not hear a sound like this in guitar playing more often?? It sounds absolutely amazing.

hawaiidispenser same

Fucking jam up song.

fucking favorite.

Hard to listen to this one sometimes

+blisterpacman Because it's sad and about making the decision to turn your back on painful stuff you can't fix.

@Noah Dillon yes i agree

@Noah Dillon I just listened to this after I woke up from sleeping all day with a lot of anxiety upon waking. I hate my anxiety and panic and how there isn't much to fix it. I cried for a minute from the intense feeling and thoughts. But Deaner is a badass, you wouldn't even know he had anxiety now. When he was younger it was more visable but even from his own account he's pretty much its master instead of the other way around.

Oxytocin 97 if you still haven’t mastered it quite yet I recommend trying a little bit of kratom. It helped me so much with my social anxiety and now I’m able to work longer hours and leave the house more and be social. I drink it every morning (for two years now) instead of coffee and I’ve had no issues yet. It also helps if you’re trying to quit addictive drugs and it’s not dangerous

Love ween
