Inspired by recent, polarizing Silver Jews vs. Smog thread - name your favorite David Berman lyrics / one-liners here!

When you feel that first ice cold twist in the wind
Will you hang a lamp at the end of the lane?

Holding hands, starlit walks
Making plans, silly talk
All I see are couples in the street
I always had a hunch
I would crumble in the crunch
Yeah, maybe I'm the only one for me

^That one was co-written with Dan Auerbach, so I'm not sure how much of it was him and how much of it was DCB. A great song regardless!

it was from an aborted attempt at auerbach to produce the record, he must have contributed enough to the chord progression or arrangement to get a credit, but if auerbach could write lyrics like that i'd imagine he'd have done it at least once before in his life

hahah fair enough, I'm actually pretty unfamiliar with his stuff, never been a Black Keys fan, etc.

We’re off to the land of club soda unbridled
We’re off to the land of hot middle-aged women
