Pride in randomly chosen words

Whenever an artist says, "I write stream-of-consciousness lyrics," my reaction is mixed.  I appreciate the artist's honesty; it's refreshing that the artist isn't trying to impart meaning into the lyrics that isn't there.  However, I also think, "Why not sit down and write actual thought-out lyrics?  Your songs might have a more lasting impact."

To each artist, his or her own, I suppose.
