Words that rhyme with Statistic
For the rhyme search, what matters about statistic is this: three-syllable, vowel on the tight /ษช/, ending that softens into a fricative tail. It's a word everyone uses โ which is what makes it powerful in a lyric. What the engine returns: the perfect-rhyme pool is generous, no family-rhyme matches turn up, and the assonance well runs into four figures. Lyric-wise, the word reads as a workaday word. The strict list gives you a chorus' worth of options before you ever need a slant.

Why statistic rhymes the way it does
Statistic sits on the short /ษช/, transcribed /ษช/ in our engine, and tails through a fricative. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 69 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 87, assonance 12,859, and consonance 31. 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. Statistic rewards slant rhyming because the strict pool, when over-used, calls attention to itself.
