Bob Dylan's lyrics range from the puerile to the sublime. But when they are sublime--no one can touch him. 
He deserves the Nobel Prize.
Inna:
There are many sublime lyrics. Too many to list. But to show just one of his many writing talents--- the depth of his ability to inhabit a foreign state of mind and write from that perspective, read the lyrics of "Every Grain of Sand" (google will do), a song written by a Jewish boy who turned Christian for a while (not sure if he still is). Can you imagine any artist who can switch religions, inhabit the new one for a short time and write about it with such grace?
