I never did much actual song writing, per se, but I've done quite a bit of arrangements. Whenever I was stuck over one, I'd either work on a different piece for a bit, or (what I found more effective) forget about music altogether for a bit - go to a film, build a piece of furniture, whatever. When I got back to the music, it seemed as if the transposition or progression I was looking for was there all the time.
I think it has something to do with using a different part of your brain for a while.
