Yeah, supposedly, it continues, "... to Pink at the Funny Farm".

What I never hear anyone mention about The Wall, though, is the funny
murmuring at the very beginning and at the end of the album. At the
beginning, right as the sound comes in, there is a man's voice saying
something very softly.  Just a few syllables, and it sounds like we're
just getting the tail end of something.  It's next to impossible to
decipher.  Then at the very very end, just as the last strains of 
"Outside the Wall" are dying off, the SAME voice comes in and starts
muttering a few syllables, but it's cut off in mid-whatever.

After being puzzled by these for a while, I wondered if maybe the
beginning didn't belong right after the end, forming a kind of endless
loop.  Hmmm.  Very Floydian.  So I recorded the end, and followed it
immediately by the beginning, and suddenly I could understand the 
mysterious message.  It said: "Isn't this where / we came in?"

Thought you'd like to know.
