Words that rhyme with Class
Class belongs to the one-syllable group; its vowel is a low-front /æ/, and it spills into a fricative. The lyric tradition treats it as a common-tongue word. It's an unremarkable word until the verse asks it to do something. Pool data: perfect-rhyme territory is narrow, no near-perfect family slants exist for this one, and the assonance bucket is the workhorse here. Its function in a song, meanwhile, is to act as a workaday word. Assonance is where the modern songwriting toolkit lives for this one.

Why class rhymes the way it does
Class sits on a low-front /æ/, transcribed /æ/ in our engine, and trails off into a fricative. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 39 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 71, assonance 6,599, and consonance 499. The empty family column matters less than it looks. Family rhymes are a strict-classifier construct; the songwriter's ear accepts most assonance matches in their place. In practice: start at the top of the perfect column, scan family next, and reach for the assonance pool when the strict matches feel worn. A lyric that uses only strict rhymes for class tends to read as dated; the contemporary ear forgives — and often prefers — the slant.
