in case the lyrics are nonsense bullshit I don't care, it's easy for me to ignore them because I'm not a native English speaker. on the other hand, there are many songs I adore only for lyrics.

Really bad lyrics make me cringe. Brand New Car, for instance

if i'm honest i dont care so much about the lyrics in a song. they can also sing nonsense as long as it sounds cool or fits the song!

Lyrics are very important. If a song like Sympathy for the devil had nonsense lyrics about for example chewing bubble gum it would not be as good even if the music was exactly the same.

one of the best stones lines is:
the sunshine bores the daylights out of me...
since i'm not a native speaker, i never quite knew what it exactly ment, but it just sounds so great in that song! ;-)

For years, I thought the lyrics to Tumbling Dice were 'I don't need your tears and that frown.'

My favorite album is EOMS, which I've been listenting-to for almost 40 years. And, I probably don't even know what half of the lyrics are on that disc. It's rock-n-roll, who cares what they're saying? Dance little sister, dance!
