Songs are a lot more than their lyrics and there are a great many wonderful and popular songs that have _no lyrics at all_. Lyrical complexity isn't really a good measure of the overall complexity of a song. Anyway, a lot of this because of the rise of dance music which is often more about rhythm and timbre, and vocals if they exist at all are often background and used more as texture than as the driving force behind the song.
