I’ve always felt that lyrics can’t be judged in isolation from the melody. Lyrics that look stupid on paper can work in the musical context, and the reverse is true also.

Interesting thought there. I’m mildly dyslexic, I found this out much later in life, I used to listen the music and consider vocals as essential but more of a texture, like it was a foreign language. But I have started to appreciate lyrics more and more as I’m revisiting a blues journey with serious intent.
Your comment reminded me of Eminem, the guy can enunciate anything into what ever it needs too be.
