True, and it preserves the cadence. The song arose when the MTA (or the "T") imposed an "exit fee" to get out of the system rather than imposing a straight fare hike (which would have required new tokens or turnstiles or something). So the song was about Charlie who could never leave the T because he didnt have the exit fare.
