(To the tune: “50 Ways to Leave Your Lover”)
When the crisis is impeding, I know my sponsor said,
The answer is easy when logic isn’t dead.
The White Knight’s walking forward and the Red Queen’s got her head,
‘Cause there’s 50 ways to leave the game.
He said he could only say what had been true for him;
Furthermore, he hoped I’d learn the games so I could win.
My struggle to get free, it wasn’t just a whim,
When I learned 50 ways to leave the game.
Chorus
Just skip out the gate, Kate.
Do an action plan, Dan.
No need to be shy, Guy,
Just listen clearly.
Jump on the jet, Pet.
Confront or vent it, Gent.
Recite the Serenity, Bea,
And free your Inner C.
He said, “It pains me to see you when you’re down.
He wished he could share something to turn my frown around.
I thanked him kindly for his help
And asked him to repeat the 50 ways again.
He asked me to a meeting on the very night.
He said I just might get some personal insight.
I went in with him and saw the dawning light.
And when he hugged me, and I knew ACA was right.
At a meeting dimly lit with only candle-flame
He said I’d get insight and precepts just the same.
I went with him and I was grateful that I came
‘Cause I learned how to leave the game.
There must be 50 ways to leave the game.
50 ways to leave the game…
Chorus
