There are some differences between the respective lyrics sheets. For one thing, the British version has the characters who say each bit listed, but the CBS version does not. This is from a posting by Dave Cowl:
| Extra | Surgeon:"Drill" Man:"Oh God!" | drill
Wake up.. |
| Extra | Wife:"What border? Go back to sleep" | Uh, what border |
| Extra bit after Arabs with knives | Arab:"Don't cut the woman Mohammed, I want the woman" | |
| Extra line | You've got to admit it was wrong what you did. | |
| Difference | oder drinken Mehr Ha.. | oder drinken bier, ha.. |
| Extra from Clerk Keys bit | Room Clerk:"Goodnight, Sir" | |
| Extra in 'Stay with Me!' Bit | Woman:"No...I'm sleeping" | |
| Lost bit | 4 lines of Sexual Revolution Missing | |
| Extra | (Thunder) | |
| Difference | And trailed our.. | And we trailed our.. |
| Extra | "..gets two presents" (Man pauses to light a joint) | |
| Difference | Jump says Yoko "Oh No!.." | Jump says Yoko Ono |
| Extra | Trucker:"Hey ...Turn the fucking Juke Box Down" | |
| Difference | In the company of has beens In bent backs In sleeping Under tube trains in commuter accidents | In the company of has beens and bent backs and sleeping Under tube trains and commuter accidents |
| Difference | On loading ramps | On unloading ramps |
| Difference | Then the moment of clarity | And the moment of clarity |
I thought this would be of interest. The most amusing part is that in the music book, the listed lyrics are the British ones, but the words against the music are the CBS lyrics. Weird, huh!
