I can't pick one song but i can do a list of artists and pick the best lyricist.
Bob Dylan, Neil Young, Bruce Springsteen, Paul Simon
If someone said a song from any of these guys i couldn't disagree with them.
Actually i will pick a song. The Last Time I Saw Richard by Joni Mitchell. Brilliant lyrics.

Something- George Harrison
He was very underrated as a songwriter, and overshadowed by two of his band mates. This song showed he could write lyrics as well as music.

Ironic - Alanis Morrisette. Don't know if its the best lyrical song of all time, but love the words.
