They only heard the radio edit, which completely cut that section of the song where he spells it out. Radio didn't want to play a 12 minute song.
I was gonna say the video exists, but the video is about 7 and a half minutes while the album version is 12 and change.
One of my favourite songs right now is a Japanese song that's around 11 minutes long. One of my favourite English songs is around ten minutes. I like long songs. I am aware that longer songs exist (RUSH's 2112 being over 20 minutes, In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida by Iron Butterfly being something like 12-15 minutes, Rime of the Ancient Mariner and Hallowed Be Thy Name by Iron Maiden being around 10 minutes (sometimes much longer live), and I've even heard of modern songs reaching an hour or more. And some meme/concept songs that go for hours. Then you have concept albums that are meant to be listened to as a whole (as opposed to 2112 which was broken up into tracks). But I do like a few pretty long songs.
