V vs SFBM 2:, lyrical comparisons Options

[LiveRoCkS77]

Please feel free to compare lyrical mishaps from these two albums. Post the worst and post the best. /By the end, hopefully we can mostly agree as to which was most poorly written.

My vote goes to V....although I'm open to being proven wrong.

Let the shitslinging begin!

I have said it often. V, for me, gets a pass because of what it was supposed to be and what it ended up being forced to be.

It wasn't supposed to be an album. The songs were supposed to be experimental. They weren't supposed to be released like that. The record company made it happen though. To me it is obvious that most of the songs on V were written quickly and never really put through the "does this suck or should we keep it like it is?" part of the writing process. I could be wrong but coming off the heels of TDTH I don't see how some of those lyrics could have seen the light of day if that wasn't somewhat true.

But with SFBM, none of that was the case. SFBM was a completely serious effort.
