First of all, it's "You and I and Rosabel believe"

Secondly, it's Del, not Paddy, saying "Rosabel believe."  The weird
sound was created by recording Del speaking through a telephone!

I always figured that the BVs at the end were saying "houdini" in kind of a
slow, thrumming sort of way.  But I have no idea...the end of the song is kind 
of a jumble to me.
