IMHO, I don't think the author of the Mauve Decade thought that the song had anything to do with Kitty Kane. I think the first three lines of the chorus served the purpose of dramatizing Kitty's end. If the fourth line of the chorus were included in the text, it wouldn't have made sense. Since it didn't fit the purpose of dramatizing Kitty's death, the fourth line was left out...
That's my $.02 worth.
