Songwriters are much better than poets at phonically similar rhymes Which I try to impress upon my students. An example I often use is in Ed Sheerin's 'I'm in love with the shape of you' when he rhymes 'backseat' with 'taxi". In general I find it easier to teach about poetic techniques through song rather than poetry

"The smell of Bengay was kind of making me sick Till someone spit out some dentures and started gumming my dick These golden girls had really been round the block I got a rim job from one while she was knitting some socks"
Maybe not dodgy just interesting subject matter.

Primus have churned out so many of those but I particularly like this one, from De Anza Jig:
I remember the day that she gave me her viriginity And then she gave it to everyone in our vicinity.
This Primus track is awash with them but they save the best to last (the video includes the lyrics):
"Things had started becoming increasingly desperate at Loftus Road but QPR have been handed a massive lifeline and the place has absolutely erupted. it's carnage. It's bedlam. It's 1-1."

The master of wordsmiths, Nige Blackwell, has among many other examples given us.. Hickstead, Hickstead, Hickstead, Hickstead. Duck Soup, 1933 Words beginning with K-N-O Words that end in B-H-E-A-D HMHB are a veritable cornucopia of wittily observed lyrics.

New Order gave us a thing of beauty...until Bernard gave up on the very last line...
A thought that never changes Remains a stupid lie It's never been quite the same No hearing or breathing No movement, no colours Just silence Rise and fall of shame A search that shall remain We asked you what you'd seen You said you didn't care Sound formed in a vacuum May seem a waste of time It's always been just the same No hearing or breathing No movement, no lyrics Just nothing The sign that leads the way The path we cannot take You've caught me at a bad time So, why don't you piss off?

Wonderful track from a great album. Although I remember feeling very disappointed about the version of 586 having heard the original on the John Peel show. I have often wondered if the 'movement' was referring to the first album title.

Had a love affair with Nina In the back of my cortina A seasoned-up hyena Could not have been more obscener She took me to the cleaners And other misdemeanours But I got right up between her Rum and her Ribena
poetic beauty.....
