It doesn't depend on the genre, but the artist.
However, country and pop are two genres that were never known for particularly insightful or high quality lyric.
I agree that it doesn't depend on the genre, but altogether (in my opinion) rock has the best lyrics. For whatever reason, it seems to me that rock in general has better lyrics than any other genre, although you can find some good lyrics in almost every genre. Country and pop altogether don't have the greatest lyrics, but in both genres there can be found a small number of songs (in comparison to rock) that are good.
Yes...you know what REAL goth, punk, and emo are (the notes in parenthesis are awesome). :)
Thanks =] It's always nice to meet another person who also knows.
New Age Electronic usually has very good lyrics.
