Rhyme Scheme: ABABCC DED EFGThe boys came back Bands played and flags were flying | A |
And Yellow Pressmen thronged the sunlit street | B |
To cheer the soldiers who'd refrained from dying | A |
And hear the music of returning feet | B |
Of all the thrills and ardours War has brought | C |
This moment is the finest So they thought | C |

Snapping their bayonets on to charge the mob | D |
Grim Fusiliers broke ranks with glint of steel | E |
At last the boys had found a cushy job | D |

I heard the Yellow Pressmen grunt and squeal | E |
And with my trusty bombers turned and went | F |
To clear those Junkers out of Parliament | G |
