I would've said Beyonce but that "smelling good" in 'Bootylicious' kills everything. So it's the Boss!

Couldn't it be Ryan Adams? Definitely the most prolific songwriter today. And what is this fishy thing about the Pinefox? How does the equation go? The Pinefox = Ally C = Lloyd Cole or what? If the Pinefox is the best lyricist where are his lyrics and songs?

If we're talking "right now" the correct answer is Mike Skinner of the Streets.

"You say everything sounds the same/Then you go buy them!"

four weeks pass...

gotta second the streets. he's beer-larious! (and i think he says that in Dont Mug Yourself or perhaps I dont understand english accents.) the big sobby track on the album, which is quite ace, "its too late" has the lyric "she loved me and i did too."
