I would force MP and JP to rethink the lyrics to Full Circle, ANTR and CoT. Perhaps give them to JLB to write.
I wouldn't wanna change 'Beautiful Agony' lyrics, and I'm fairly sure that The Count of Tuscany's quirkiness is part of what makes it especially unique.
And how dare you want to change the clever alluding nonsensical lyrics from Full Circle!
All of those examples are just fun and playful lyrics really. Songs don't always have to be tragically serious.
Not that you're implying that, but I do think whatever style came across in the writing, was a conscious decision by the writer. By deliberately telling a story in a certain way, or by experiementing with something a little bit different.
