When you listen to a song, is it important to you that the lyric of said song tells a story, ie are you happy if it's a "rock all night" or "dance with me" or "this sucks" kind of idea, or do you prefer (not saying it has to, just is it your preference) for it to tell a story, make a point, or give you some insight into the writer of the song?

I really thought the question was clear. I hope it is now.
Ki's stupid. End story.
