Default BJ's best post-2000 lyrics
As the same topic gets repeated over and over again in their current single releases etc some songs had real potential lyrically. Only talking about the lyrics, not the musical arrangement of the song.
What are your favourites?

1. Right Side of Wrong (lyrically I see Bounce as a very good album)
2. Novocaine
3. Brokenpromiseland

Hmm, Some of the best lyrics don't necessarily mean the best songs, I'll go with:

SIIS
Two Story Town
OWN
RSOW
LMS
BOF
Novocaine
DLS
MAM
AOD
Walk Like A Man
LTOR
BPL

Some are silly but addicitive, some are clever, some are meaningful - it depends what you're looking for when you say "good lyrics".

Novocaine, Brokenpromiseland and I'm actually going to go for, very oddly, Captain Crash & The Beauty Queen From Mars. The lyrics are daft and a bit silly, but good songwriting doesn't need to be deep and meaningful if the lyrics work.

'I Got The Girl'.

''Holy mother of Saint Bubblegum
And sister band aid knees
Oh won't you please
Pray for the ones like me?''

Tremendous.

I was thinking about putting that on my list. That must be nice for his daughter, having a song written about her that she can have forever.

I've always had a soft spot for that song.
