It was the album Tanglewood Numbers
Featuring ten quality tracks
And the return of Malkmus
That really cemented their place in the pantheon
Of bands that know how to title a song
Punks In The Beerlight indeed
Berman's singing was a bit subdued
Though his lyrics were still sharper than knives
After battling depression & drugs (suicidal consumption)
And watching the studio burn
Can you believe the studio burned
As if the world didn't want to hear it
They toured in '05
For the first time ever, they toured
Not anywhere nearby however
So the words of the singing poet remain
Confined to the few discs stored on the MP3
Damn, them Silver Jews rocked
