I don't particularly like this song a ton but it is good. I love the old stuff. But as far as interpretation wise I think 'Milk' really nailed it...
"OOO I THINK I FIGURED OUT WHAT ITS ABOUT at least the chorus (i think everything else is just random rambling) but the chorus is an insult to all of us former weezer fans who think they went extreme pop in the last two albums-
by saying "for the times that you want to go and bust rhymes real slow" he is talking about the people at his shows who are trying to get him to play slow, emotional pinkerton songs instead of the other crap
all he wants to play are his new faster more up-beat songs so when he says "i'll appear, slap you on the face and enjoy the show" he is basically saying shut up i dont want to play that anymore
thats what i think, because in a rolling stone article he says that it annoys him at the shows that everyone wants to hear the blue album and pinkerton songs, and he is past that
and by saying this dope nose, he means "this dope knows"..what you really want to listen to--which is a quote from the rolling stone article in which he said,"i hate our fans, they dont know what they want, i do, trust me this dope knows what they want" "

That makes pure sense to me.
