Words that rhyme with Mott
Sound and sense both matter for mott. The sound: one-syllable, vowel on the open /ษ/, ending that closes on a hard stop. The sense: a low-register anchor. It's an unremarkable word until the verse asks it to do something. What the engine returns: you won't run short of perfect rhymes, the family-rhyme classifier finds nothing, and the assonance pool has more matches than any verse will use. Lyric-wise, the word reads as a stop-by-stop-grocery-shelf word. Take the strict matches first; they have more range than the count suggests.

Why mott rhymes the way it does
Mott is built around the short /ษ/ (/ษ/); it's one-syllable and shuts cleanly on a stopped consonant. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 62 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 71, assonance 6,690, and consonance 997. 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. 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. Mott rewards slant rhyming because the strict pool, when over-used, calls attention to itself.
