The Way Out Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCCADDE AFAFBBAGG HBHBHHAAAA AAAAAAAAA'There must be some way out ' they say | A |
'There must be some way out | B |
We've fallen on an evil day | A |
That we no longer doubt | B |
But surely there's some magic rare | C |
To banish this dull load of care | C |
And strengthen out defences | A |
We'll find it yet if we but look | D |
But this is sure By hook or crook | D |
We won't cut down expenses ' | E |
- | |
How like a harried housewife these | A |
Wild politicians seem | F |
'Oh George ' she cries 'Don't scold so please | A |
You must find some shrewd scheme | F |
There surely must be some way out | B |
What of those deals you talked about | B |
Are all your plans pretences | A |
I want a frock I want a hat | G |
My parties Bridge debts What of that | G |
I can't cut down expenses ' | - |

But George he knows as well we know | H |
There is but one way out | B |
When incomes fall we must go slow | H |
Stern facts no man may flout | B |
And well we know as George must know | H |
A pound note just so far will go | H |
And all men in their senses | A |
Well realise there's but one way | A |
When we fall on an evil day | A |
We've got to cut expenses | A |
- | |
The magic stone philosophers | A |
Sought in the olden years | A |
May by no chance be ours or hers | A |
For all our pleas and tears | A |
The only magic's common sense | A |
Despite vague schemes and sly pretence | A |
Wrangles and differences | A |
When economic stress appears | A |
One warning echoes down the years | A |
'Go slow and cut expenses ' | - |
