I've heard that Columbia released an edited version of this to radio
stations though I've never actually seen such a version...any promo copies
I've ever seen had the "crap" intact. As I recall, the WBZ edit was a bit
clumsy so it may have been done in-house. BZ also aired an interesting
edit of Hall & Oates' "Rich Girl" with the line "it's a bitch girl"
replaced with "you're a rich girl". This may have been a record company
edit as I recall hearing it on at least one other station, though again
I've never actually seen a copy with this version on it.

Actually, it was the Hillside Singers that did ILTTTWTS, the Rooftop
Singers' sole hit was "Walk Right In" from 1963. Interestingly, the
Hillside Singers' follow-up was called "We're Together" and was sung to the
tune of the then-current "you deserve a break today..." McDonalds
jingle. The HS may have been the singers on the jingle.
