More For The Money Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABBCDAAAEFDAGGD GGH EEIIAEJKIK| What are the wild waves saying now that their lengths are changed | A |
| In a manner most dismaying are the stations now aranged | A |
| And I twist and twirl and twiddle at the knobs then with a screech | B |
| Come sounds of a sobbing fiddle and a League of Nations speech | B |
| Or the Abyssinian crisis with the football field's alarms | C |
| Or the fat stock market prices mixed up with stuff by 'Brahms ' | D |
| More for my money truly in these daft days I get | A |
| Since the waves become unruly and the solo's a duet | A |
| From HA and DB or LO and NT | A |
| From AR and CK Sounds mingle in the cutest way | E |
| 'You are listening now to a song by Bach | F |
| On the Jersey cow 'Hahk Hahk the Lahk ' | D |
| On the cult of the tomato | A |
| My cutie says Scratched for the Cup | G |
| Von Plonken plays Prime wethers up | G |
| With a 'cello obligato ' | D |
| - | |
| What are the wild waves saying now that their paths o'erlap | G |
| And the trumpet's brazen braying breaks in on the solemn chap | G |
| Who tell the listening nation how flames of war arise | H |
| But a strident Sydney station yells 'Smoke gets in your eyes ' | - |
| And you'll note if you're observant that spite of all you say | E |
| Your boss the Civil Servant goes on his own sweet way | E |
| He deplores the sad disaster when your set so misbehaves | I |
| But the servant rules the master and choas rules the waves | I |
| From HA and DB from LO and NT | A |
| From AR and CK Sounds mingle in the quaintest way | E |
| But in a while you cease to smile | J |
| For the thing's no longer funny | K |
| Listener be wise Pray realise | I |
| You get more for your money | K |
