"Separate Lives"

I listened to Vulture Culture yester-day and noticed an interesting feature in "Separate Lives."  In the lines "'Cause we don't see eye to eye / And we can't stand face to face," the phrases "eye to eye" and "face to face" are sung so that the two "eye"s and the two "face"s are sung to different pitches.  (Each phrase is sung to the notes F# G E.)  Even musically, then, there's a sense of this disparity.
