Here are a couple of my favorite Bob Dylan lyrics:
Mr. Tambourine Man
"Yes, to dance beneath the diamond sky with one hand waving free
Silhouetted by the sea, circled by the circus sands
With all memory and fate driven deep beneath the waves
Let me forget about today until tomorrow."
Tombstone Blues
"The Commander-in-Chief answers him while chasing a fly
Saying, Death to all those who would whimper and cry
And dropping a barbell he points to the sky
Saying, The suns not yellow its chicken." -

I like most of Dylan's early music and plenty of his more recent music. I find that he's best lyrically when he stays away from politics. I don't hate "the times they are a-changin" but I think it's incredibly hollow compared to many of his other lyrics.
