Billy Joel - Greatest Hits Vol. 1-2 album at Amazon.com
Billy Joel's, "It's Still Rock And Roll To Me"
The Misrhymed Lyrics:
What's the matter with the clothes I'm wearing?
Can't you tell that your ties' too wide?
Maybe I should bye some old tab collars
Welcome back to the age of jive
Why They're Misrhymed:
Although these lines do not rhyme, very few in the song do. The song is not composed in rhyme, but rather in cadence. Cadence is a balanced rhytmic flow used in poetry and oration, and has a falling inflection at the end of a line to bring a sense of closure, rather than a similar sound as found in rhyming.
