It's pop music. How 'good' it is is solely based on how much it sells. The Beatles win that, end of story. If you're looking for revealing and interesting lyrics, don't listen to pop music. That's not what it's there for.
I don't really like the Beatles all that much. I can listen to them (I actually bought the Beatles Rock Band game today because I wanted an actual GH/RB game that was full of songs that I could actually stand to listen to), but I'm not a fan. I still harbor all-together ill feelings toward the British Invasion because it suffocated the Folk Song Revival and ended it far too early.
