'Wish You Were Here' cover

When Dave Gilmour and his Pink Floyds covered Wyclef Jean's Wish You Were Here, why did they leave out the rap about 'the dark side of the moon'?

I would have thought that would work perfectly for the band because of their deep connection with astronomy - the cover of Oxygene even had all those little men with binoculars on it!
