You're trying to prove the music is shit by asking people to read the lyrics without the music?
Yes, somebody sounds like a retard.

Have you heard the song in question?
Halfway through it I get the urge to ask someone to hit them as it seems they're stuck. The same repetitive screechy keyboard, the same monotonous bass line, followed by uninspired guitar work that eventually leads to a repetition of the two verses.

Or for that matter, take "Touch Me". Is there anything redeeming about that song, aside from a passable sax solo at the end? And "LA Woman" makes me grit my teeth. Mr. Mojo rising, indeed. Gah.

i have heard all the songs you mention, yes.
sadly though, it seems that your opinion is different to mine. i hope this doesn't spoil your enjoyment of the internet too much.

My opinion may be biased
due to having had to hear The Doors played ad nauseum by every Classic Rock station everywhere for the past thirty years. They didn't appeal to me as a kid, and they haven't improved with age. It seems that now every time I go to a shop to get my car fixed they have a radio somewhere in the garage blaring out The Doors or Lynyrd Skynyrd.

Are you suggesting that Lynyrd Skynyrd are in some way not awesome?
Fie on you.

ONE SONG IS ENOUGH.

Let's just say
that every time "Freebird" is played on the radio I either have to change the station or leave the vicinity lest violence occur.

The Allman Brothers were similarly dire. And I won't start talking of The Band lest I get really agitated.

I get the impression that you don't like 1970s rock music
You probably ought to stop listening to it.

Not all 70s music
but the whole Southern Rock genre really irritated the fuck out of me. I mean, I can listen to Peter fucking Frampton* and Fleetwood Mac and the Stones and so on, but the drunken stoned-out-of-their-gourds hicks-with-guitars thing annoyed me almost as much as the I-take-drugs-and-make-music-so-I'm-deep thing. Back to my original post, Morrisson took himself far too seriously and crawled up his own anus just before he offed himself. I for one will never miss him.

There are other seminal 70s bands and performers that I think are far better than most of what I find on the radio these days, but a good many of them are extremely overrated. I'd take Green Day over the Marshall Tucker Band any day, and prefer Nirvana over Grateful Dead.
