The lyrics above are as heard on the original Dial-a-Song version.
The following verse is tacked on to the end of the LoFi (DAS Online) version,
and is sung superimposed with the first verse in the Then version:
As I rode the subway this morning
There was a man with a boat beside me And he tapped out rhythms with a smile on his face
And the tip of his finger
That he found on the floor
And these are the words that he told to the fellow next door
