Cover art for Dilly lyrics by Band of Horses

@poet, your analysis is kind of ridiculous. This is a simple pop song, and your explanations are mostly of extremely simple sentences. Somehow though, you completely missed the point of the chorus. A "tall one" is a beer. It took one beer to see the problem, two beers to believe it, and three to make him angry. No divorce attorneys.
