Old Hippie-

"If you wish to pass some water
Kindly call the pullman porter
He'll leave a vessel in the vestabule
If the porter isn't near
Then try the platform in the rear
The one in front is
Likely to be full."

That's not the way I remember this verse by Brand:

If you wish to pass some water
Kindly call the pullman porter
He'll leave a vessel in the vestabule
If the porter isn't near
Then try the platform in the rear
The one in front is
Likely to be COOL.

You're probably correct!

Cheerily,
