Not as much as Tiny Dancer by Elton John is.
It could have been played on country radio for sure.

Do you play at all Kafka?
Do you think the music or the lyrics are more important? Or must the two be entwined?
What makes good lyrics ? What makes good music?
I want to pick your brain.

Writing lyrics requires the writer to deal more directly with his/her emotions. Yip Harburg ("Over The Rainbow") said the hardest kind of song to write is a non-corny love song.

Lyrics don’t always need to be some heartfelt soul-wrenching ordeal. Sometimes words and rhymes are just fricking catchy. Sometimes a story needs to be told.
