I used to think so, when I was a child. Now, they seem kinda amateurish.

They're all over the place. I think there has been a general drop off in lyric quality on the last three albums but others may disagree.

They definitely had more impact when I was young, but they did have an impact.

I never knew soap made you taller

Have you got yourself some sand?

When the gas in my tank feels like money in the bank

I cut the crease, put the shit in the hole, yeah!


This is like writing found poetry.

I was more enthralled with their lyrics when I was a kid, and they probably won't be teaching Pearl Jam lyrics in Literature class at Harvard anytime soon. But when you combine the lyrics with the music, I do think Pearl Jam has created some magical songs, and the lyrics are an important part of that. I also agree with surfndestroy.
