Why scramble rhymes the way it does
Scramble is built around the short /æ/ (/æ/); it's two-syllable and spills out through a liquid consonant. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 11 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 28, assonance 6,686, and consonance 52. 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. Practical: skim the strict column first and pick the two or three matches you can sing without thinking. Then move to assonance for the in-between lines. Scramble reads as more memorable when the strict matches are reserved for the line endings that matter most.
