    I prefer Del the Funky Homosapien as well.
    Later Mr. Bungle stuff and earlier Incubus stuff is great too.

    for an example, take these Del the Funky Homosapien lyrics

    You betta' wash yo hands, if you must
    you gotta brush yo teeth, if you must
    you gotta wipe yo ass, if you must
    or else you'll be FUNKY!

    or these Mr. Bungle lyrics

    They're shining searchlights in the sky
    cause there's a new god in the signs
    it says the map is not the terrier work
    then I broke my telescope
    but that's the nature of the game, and you have to play

    or these Incubus lyrics

    What if your brain, unexpectedly, and then suddenly
    picked up thing to flip around and view a lot differently
    What if blue skies, all of a sudden turned a purple hue,
    we could shit a brick the size of all of it (what if)

    What if I was just dreaming?
    What if I lived in a pear?
    What if my watch read 4:20 every hour everyday,
    YOU COULD BET YOUR DOLLAR I'D BE HAPPY

    I forgot to remember
    I forgot to remember my pain
    forgot to inject my cocaine
    forgot to apply my rogaine...

    I'm not going to debate whether or not Maynard is the best lyricist of all time, but I certainly believe he's one of them. Nothing blew me away more than when I learned that the syllables of the lyrics of "Lateralus" match up to a Fibonacci sequence. That's really hard to do, to say the least. The excellence of his lyrics for APC further supports his status as one of today's preeminent lyricists.

    Tool= Undisputed Gods of Stoner Rock.

    and yes, there are very few bands who can write better lyrics than them

    yeah. i have heard of it.

    You are correct. The cult of stoner rock is a polytheistic religon, so we can have a plethora of gods, Ozzy being Zeus.
