First off, its ok to not like something even if "everyone" seems to. Secondly, Dylan's lyrics (in his hay day) were often topical commentary on political and social events of the time. They aren't laid out in a direct way that someone without the cultural context would have an easy time connecting the dots of meaning. Finally, Dylan (especially early career) was a poetic lyricist who often expressed abstract ideas in vague ways that left things up to interpretation. Just like some of the best non-musical poetry/prose. Whether Dylan did it as a deliberate stroke of genius or stoned accident is debatable. As is whether the outcome is high art or pretentious dribble. You'll find scores that will agree with whatever take you choose to adopt.
