listening to music for lyrics is being a confused poetry-enthusiast.

I appreciate the lyrics separately from a writing point of view.

I also enjoy the music.

It works well enough when listened to as music, so I can't say I give a shit about your post.

I used to play in a Dungeons and Dragons campaign that used that song to describe its main town's hierarchy.

Elephant Talk is literally the most LIT song ever fucking created. It's about /lit/, it is /lit/, it is lit.

The lyrics are well above average but can't compare to actual poetry and that's it.

If you're Looking for an album with a worthwhile narrative you'll want to listen to The Downward Spiral by Nine Inch Nails. There are entire theses written on the profound subject matter of the lyrics.
I encourage you to read the following, it's not too long.
