New Lyrics Writing Article - Doing Time, For 'forced-Rhymes'

songwriting rhymes forced-rhymes lyrics writing song writing
Forced-rhymes are for new songwriters, something that just tends to happen by accident. They appear in songs with no real forethought other than "I need something to rhyme with this".

Rhymes of course appear in many forms and can be used in many ways. There are circumstances where forced-rhymes stand out like a sore thumb and others where although it is a forced-rhyme it somehow blends well with the song.
