College stations and bad language

[Larry Lovering]

"Kodachrome" by Paul Simon began its first verse with the "crap" line and
the second verse with the "girls" line.  Did WBZ really edit the song so
that the line to the second verse played twice?

And someone (Paul Simon, I think) had a record in the early 70s that began,
"When I think back on all the crap I learned in high school, it's a wonder I
can think at all."  Some stations played it that way, but WBZ modified it,
dubbing in the first line of the next verse, so that it went, "When I think
of all the girls I knew when I was single, it's a wonder I can think at
all."  
It made a lot less sense that way.
