Would You Like Dreamgirl If The Lyrics Didn't Blow?

I would. The guitar is cool and I like the new outro, its very jazzy albeit a little too long. The problem is I just can't get past the lyrics, they are up there with Angel as some of Dave's worst. If he had wrote some meaningful lyrics this song would be so much better.

It does seem too thrown together. I like it, but not on the same level as most other DMB songs. With better lyrics, this could have been a gem.

The first verse seems out of place. Has nothing to do with the song as a love song like the second verse does.
Forget about the reasons and the treasons we are seeking
Forget about the notion that our emotions can be swept away, kept at bay
Forget about being guilty, we are innocent instead
For soon we will all find our lives swept away

not sure, just not my thing, its one of those things, where there is nothing wrong with the music it just isnt my taste. my favorite dmb songs are upbeat, and it seems like that song drags.
