The B phrases are probably to be considered as the refrains to the A phrases 

 which are the verse proper. The extensions of the B phrase are really part of 

 it, therefore it does not seem advisable to class them as connectives even though 

 the final extension is missing, just as the connective is omitted at the end of 

 the completed dance song. The form is very like the pisik without prelude and 

 with undivided verse. The melody begins on the first beat on the fourth degree 

 of what seems to be a major grouping. There is apparently a modulation to 

 F major in the course of the song and the final tone is on the tonic of this new 

 key. The play is between a natural and a flat.
