Life Wasted and WWS aren't THAT bad. Sure the lyrics are a bit clunky but they are still pretty decent rockers, especially live.

I'll never understand the WWS hate.
It's really not that different from Big Wave musically.

I can’t believe some people here like Big Wave. Those are some horrendous lyrics.
This is my main hangup with it.
I can appreciate a dumb, fun rocker as much as the next guy (hello "The Fixer"), but it feels out of place to me on an album that mostly seems to concern itself with Big Issues. I dunno -- maybe I'm missing something.

I guess it does kinda seem outta place, but I actually like the lyrics and Ed's delivery of them. And I surf in celebration of a billion adaptations... I feel the need planted in me millions of years ago can't you see... Love it.

Every song on this record has some clunky lines. Most also have an interesting turn of phrase, evocative image, or insightful reflection somewhere along the way...which puts ST basically on par with Vs lyrically.
