I think Andrew wanted to turn it into a more family oriented piece for the tour, which meant cutting bits like the songs "Annie Christmas" and "Charlie Christmas" which I love, and Jim disagreed with that? So Don wrote the lyric for the new song that was introduced to cover that section, which was a song called "The tribe".
