Those are huge enough differences to make me prefer the TV version. They shortened the song for the album for no good reason. In fact, the only reason I think I can find that they changed it is that in the album version, you can keep a consistent count of four beats per measure without stopping, or two measures of 6/4 time, at "laugh to make them disappear". In the TV version (the original), adds approximately two extra beats in rest for the pause in action. Who knows, maybe the album version with less pauses was how Daniel originally wrote it before the song was animated, and they added the pause to suit the animation better.
