What's the worst rhyming couplet you've ever heard?
For me, it has to be "Interior crocodile alligator/I drive a Chevrolet movie theater," spat by "rapper" Chip tha Ripper.
What are your favorite bad rhymes?

P.S. This video plays that line over and over again: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XnMDrv8Mx3E.

I have several candidates:
the Undertones - "My perfect cousin/What I like to do he dousin' "
Human Sexual Response - "I wanna be Jackie Onassis/ I wanna wear a pair of dark sunglasses"
from "If I were a bell" (Guys and Dolls) - to rhyme with "caressing" they have "If I were a salad I'd splash my dressing".

Finally, one of my own which I wrote at the larp the other weekend, as a spoof of awful musical numbers. It describes "Calmo", a sedative which I'd invented from a home chemistry set...
"- and when your life gets hectic/my chemically eclectic/potion helps keep ev'rybody ca-alm"

a friend of mine is totally convinced she can rhyme 'orange' with 'car hinge' which is supposed to be a big deal because orange is so hard to rhyme. however, whenever she or anyone else i know says it it really doesn't rhyme and actually causes physical pain to my ears

Worst song lyrics ever, circa 1968, is "Eleanor" by The Turtles. Talk about hurting the ears:

Eleanor gee i think you're swell,
And you really do me well,
You're my pride and joy etcetera . . .


Beat that.

As I've already said, "Interior crocodile alligator/I drive a Chevrolet movie theater."

Yeah, but "Eleanor" was in the top 10 on the charts at the time. Your entry is obscure and virtually unknown. You can still hear Eleanor on the radio from time to time - it is a telling reflection of the idiocy of the Amerikan public.

How about BloodHound Gang trying to rhyme with Vagina?

It's hard to rhyme a word like vagina,
Calvin Klein? Kind of North Carolina,

Hey-oh now listen what I say-oh
