Q: did you ever consider ending 'the ending' after the title line, after the 'slow it way way down for the ending', in kind of a moon-is-made-of-cheese-type fashion?
A: i didn't know that was the title at the time, but, it was also immediately clear that it should go back to the verse right there. that verse melody riff is really the whole point of the song, and it was well overdue to make a repeat appearance
