"Telephone Line"

I was thinking about "Telephone Line" yester-day (because I'd listened to From out of Nowhere for the first time the day before, and "Telephone Line" is referenced in "Time of Our Life"), and I realized a small thing.

The last syllable of "ev'rything" in the line "I'd tell you ev'rything" is sung with a glissando (as a whole, the word is sung to the notes E F# E~C#), musically giving a sense of breadth.
