That explains why it didn't rhyme

"Many lyricists rhyme as they pronounce, and their pronunciation is simply horrible. They can make 'home' rhyme with 'alone,' and 'saw' with 'more,' and go right off and look their innocent children in the eye without a touch of shame." (from On the Writing of Lyrics, by Sir P. G. Wodehouse)

Another rhyme problem HERE.
