Why woodrow rhymes the way it does
Woodrow is built around the open /ษ/ (/ษ/); it's two-syllable and tails off through an approximant. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 265 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 1225, assonance 1,936, 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. 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. Woodrow rewards slant rhyming because the strict pool, when over-used, calls attention to itself.
