Why caretaker rhymes the way it does
The rhyme map for caretaker starts at the vowel โ the /ษหr/ vowel, IPA /ษหr/ โ and ends where the line trails through a flowing liquid. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 0 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 35, assonance 12,223, and consonance 5. That's a narrow strict column with a very deep slant well beneath it. Modern songwriting reads those slants as rhymes; the ear has been trained on them for a century. The songwriter's move is to pick a small set of strict rhymes for the chorus and open up to family and assonance through the verses. Caretaker rewards slant rhyming because the strict pool, when over-used, calls attention to itself.
