You're sitt-ing around thinking that you are, fun-hun-ny
Grabbing some paper to see what, cou-hould be
Newsflash, there's something, you've left behind.
When wri-ting your ly-rics, your songs should...

You're on the right track but it seems you might, need to think.
Or maybe this all came resul-ting from a, sti-iff drink.
Hey there, don't rush. You'll lose the time.
You get sober and unwind.

You'll notice when you read something just ain't right.
The lyrics don't rhyme.
You thought it'd be funny, and well it just might
If the lyrics rhymed.

News headlines, well they're good for your content.
If the lyrics rhymed.
Parodies ain't the same, they're not as fun-ny.
When lyrics don't rhyme.

This song cuts corners, with words that might, sound the same.
That's one way around it, when can't think of what to say.
Slow down, re-read, you'll be just fine.
Use your feet to keep time.

Po-ten-tial, yes it has, just needs one more step.
Lyrics that rhyme.
The time is pre-, vious-ly laid out for you.
Just make it rhyme.

Slow down, re-read.
Sing the line.
You'll get it, in no time.

It's frus-tra-ting to read a song, that shows
Lyrics don't rhyme.
A true song has phrasing and tempo
And.... Lyrics that rhyme

Your song will get laughs, if only it had
Lyrics that rhyme.
I don't want to step on, ANY-ONE'S TOES HERE
Lyrics should rhyme.

Lyrics should rhyme.
Lyrics should rhyme.
Lyrics should rhyme.
