No, the caps do not match exactly. The pickups are different. Only "morrow" and "have to" match. That's really not much at all. And although the rhythms are similar they're not the same - "Tomorrow" is in a pop 4 feel, and the refrain of "Worst Pies" is in waltz time - so the relationship of the notes to each other rhythmically are not the same.

If we're really going to make that much out of a bit of scalewise 6-5 melody ("mor-row"), there are millions of songs that feature that. "With Anne On My Arm" comes to mind. Also this old jingle for Tweeter, linked below.
