Most Common Against Me! Words Per Album

Against Me! Were one of my favorite bands at one point. I was hoping to see if someone could see a change in their lyrics or politics over time by looking at the most popular words to their albums. It doesn't look like one can. I thought maybe tracking the word "anarchist" over time might lead to something interesting, but it doesn't.

I didn't really see anything interesting in terms of patterns, but just in case someone else does, here are the 10 most popular words for each Against Me! Album (minus filler words like 'a').
