on that folkworks benefit (WNEW) in 1987, he cocked up the lyrics to the Wreck!

" the cpatain wired in he had water coming in and big sip and crew was in peril

and later that night when the ship's bell rang, could it beeeeeeeeeeeeeeee the duh duh, feeling"

and then during the instrumental part he spoke the proper lyrics
"later that night when it's lights came ouf of site, is that it?, came the wreck of the edmund fitzgerald". i can host a small mp3 clipof this if anyone wants to hear it
