It does...that's why I love it! It may not have the lyrical brilliance of "Ray of Light" "American Life" (disgustingly underrated!!), "Like A Prayer, etc, but that's not what it set out for. It's just fun! Although the lyrics to "Issac" are amazing "Let It Will Be" and "Like It Or Not" are awesome lyrically too. The album is brillliant in it's own way though. I heard she's working with Timbaland and Pharrell Williams on the next album, so now I'm nervous. Everything they produce is shit. I hope she doesn't let them influence her too much, and sticks to her own ideas as lyricst, vocalist, and her own main producer.
