Words that rhyme with Locator
Most songwriters treat locator as a word the lyric earns weight from by context, but the phonology underneath matters: three-syllable, vowel on the /ษหr/ vowel, ending that trails through a flowing liquid. Common words like this gain weight from the company they keep on the line. Sketch the rhyme pool and you get perfect rhymes simply aren't available, the family column is blank, and the assonance pool has more matches than any verse will use. Sketch the lyric role and you get a common-tongue word. Lean on assonance and the song will sound contemporary, not catalogued.

Why locator rhymes the way it does
Locator is built around the back /ษหr/ (/ษหr/); it's three-syllable and ends on a liquid that pulls the line forward. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 0 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 170, assonance 6,337, and consonance 325. 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. In the room with a guitar: write toward the strict rhyme first, then go back through and replace the obvious ones with the assonance matches that earned their place. Locator is a word that benefits from the second pass.
