What is criticism worth?

lyrics

Flamingo Sorceress Üllr and the valkyrie choir:
(You got me hanging on a dream)

Royal:
John wrote a song about peace and got shot in the back now he's dead
Paul wrote a song Ob-La-Di Ob-La-Da and yet his life goes on
Kurt's in the dirt cause his feelings got hurt and he just couldn't stay
Dave said I'll stick around and see what the critics say

Royal and Meany Motto:
Somebody's gotta hold my head
No matter what a critic says
It says a lot more about them
Than what they're trying to understand

It's what I don't understand

Flamingo Sorceress Üllr and the valkyrie choir:
(You got me hanging on a dream)

Royal to Meany Motto:
So what is the worth to put in all this work just to see what they say?
I tell you it's not because brother there's got to be a different way
Royal to Vär:
I look in your eyes and I am not surprised that they contain the stars
I count every one then we devise a plan to make them all ours

Royal and Meany Motto:
Somebody's gotta hold my head
No matter what a critic says
It says a lot more about them
Than what they're trying to understand

It's what I don't understand

Flamingo Sorceress Üllr and the valkyrie choir:
(You got me hanging on a dream)
