It's hard to compare Bono's lyric-writing to yesterdays. They make pop music now, plain and simple. To me, The lyrics to "The Wanderer" won't fit a pop tune.
but i agree, his writing has taken a slight dive in the last couple albums. Some of it it seems like he did on the spot.
i wouldn't say he was drunk, he must have been pretty pissed during a lot of the AB writing sessions and look how great those lyrics came out. But if he was a little tipsy when he wrote "some people have skyscrapers on their backs", then he needs to put down the guiness.
its not like he doesnt have brilliant writing skills.
anyway, u2 are in my top 5 and always will be. But it is subjective. Although, if a rock fan doesn't have them in their top 20, sparks will fly
