Funny, just this morning Soul Coughing's "Super Bon Bon" came on the radio and I thought to myself, "Great senseless song. Now, is that good songwriting?"
And then I came here and found you all wondering the same thing.
It is the music and beat, but I think you get something extra when you get a poem, literature, thrown in as a bonus. The real soul is when the emotion of the music and the story are completely in sync.
But sometimes the whimsy is great too.
Do lyrics have to make sense for the song to be a hit?

A couple of my students pulled this up in my class just the other day! We could not stop laughing.
The subject of my lecture that day was do you have to speak the same language to communicate . . . I guess not.
