Gentleman's Guide Lyric Question

Random but curious...

In the opening song, they sing the line "It's just past 8, it's not too late.."

When I saw the matinee it was changed to "It's just past 2, so/now here's your cue..."

When the show is on at 7, what do they sing?

I had always wondered about this because when I first saw the show it WAS at 8pm and then I saw it again at 7 but for the life of me can't remember the lyric change. I do remember whatever it was, the changed line was still followed by "It's not too late".

I saw a 3pm matinee last year after being familiar with the recording, and I distinctly remember that the lyric had been changed to "it's only just past 3, still time to flee" or something of that nature.

They don't mention the time in the 7 p.m. shows.  It's something like "it's not too late/it's just your fate".

3 pm was, "it's just past three/while you're still free", if I recall correctly.
