Lyrics are the first thing most listeners notice in a song, and everyone has their own opinions about what you need to do in order to make your lyrics "good". But are those opinions... wrong? Maybe! Well, no, but I think they're often overspecified, and lyrics that are actually really good get overlooked because they seem, on the surface, to be incoherent, so instead of just letting other people have different tastes from me, I decided to invent a whole new category of lyrics in order to justify my own love of cool-sounding nonsense!
