yeah but to be fair there is only a limited amount of good songwriting your average mortal can manage in a lifetime: even the likes of dylan were diabolical for massive periods (like the 80s and first half of the 90s). and besides, i've always seen sy lyrics as just a section in the songs, and usually the least significant part: all that hylozic directions and suspect faux-beat stuff rarely hit the target, though the odd song like kissability had a point. i think that lee is the only one with proper 'songwriting' ability: the lee song is always the song i most look forward to on an album, right through to rats on RR.
