That may be just one example, but they've all played fast & loose with grammar from time to time.
While we're on the subject of grammar, Smile At You didn't bother me near as much as this little line from Destiny Rules:

'I didn't speak the language, but somehow I know that THAT would be the only time that we could be alone and foolish'

No reason to repeat 'that,' the line works with it eliminated (in fact, I don't sing it when I sing along). I've often wondered why this wasn't addressed instead of the verse tense-Bob Dylan episode in the doc. I can't believe LB let this one slide.
