this song was not trying to amuse anything when it was written... John wrote it to show that Roger wasn't as conceded as he is in the later version (what you own) because if you look at songs like goodbye love in the NYTW Roger is shy and timid, while in the OBC Roger he's more stuck up, again pointing to Goodbye love (OBC and later versions)
Gorgeous, though I do prefer What You Own.

@katieandkatieshow Well, it was written 'with his voice in mind'. Jonathan Larson wrote it to meld with his voice, his range.
