It's a word everyone uses โ which is what makes it powerful in a lyric. The word arrives in song as a word the lyric earns weight from by context.

Why flo rhymes the way it does
To understand why flo rhymes the way it does, start with the vowel โ the open /ษ/, written /ษ/ โ and the ending, which ends on an unbuttoned vowel. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 56 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 1464, assonance 3,525, and consonance 0. That's a deep perfect column. The song can ride strict rhymes from end to end, only sliding into assonance when the line needs to surprise. What matters when you're writing: the ear forgives slants in service of meaning. If the strict rhyme is the predictable word, the assonance match will usually hit harder. Flo is a word where the slant choice almost always reads as more thoughtful than the obvious end-rhyme.
