I can't express this enough, Rhyming sucks...alot. And if you're going to rhyme, lets go beyond monosylabic words.

Songs are esentially poetry. I once had a poetry professor tell me that you're are supposed to put a ton of time into your poem till it looks like it just flowed from your mouth. However if it looks like it was effortless because it was, then people aren't impressed. Dr. Suess was only good because he wrote about morals and he made words up. Had no written about what he had for breakfast and used everyday 10 cents words, it would ahve been crap.

Pleas pleas please do not rhyme things like "knows, glows, bros"

Im not being a **** here, this is essentially packaging your song for a 1 week radioplay at best.
