How to write lyrics for a song: using rhymes - SAMESOUND

We are surrounded by rhymes and rhyming lines - songwriters have taken the place of poets in the modern world. According to literary critic David Kaplan, the activity of songwriters has led us to live in an era of rhymes that get stuck in our heads along with popular tracks. As confirmation of Kaplan's words, one can recall Bob Dylan, who in 2016 received the Nobel Prize in Literature for his poetry.

It's not easy to write lyrics for a song - the rhymes are idiotic, the lines don't make sense. However, one should not think that the lyrics are limited to rhymes. Flypaper contributor Charlotte Yates has three tips for anyone who wants to know how to come up with lyrics for a song. According to Charlotte, these recommendations will help move the writing of lyrics off the ground and make it easier to write lyrics. Revision SAMESOUND.RU provides an adapted translation of the note.

Change schemes

Those who want to understand how to write lyrics for a song often forget that the lines of songs are usually written in certain patterns called rhyming schemes. Lines whose last words rhyme with each other are denoted by letters: the first line is A, the second is B , etc. If a line doesn't rhyme, it's X.

Here are a few common patterns (similar to the structural song patterns used in an arrangement):

  • AABB - adjacent rhyme, couplet syllable, in which every two lines rhyme with each other;
  • ABAB - cross syllable, opposition, in which the lines rhyme with each other through one;
  • AAAA - monorhyme, each line rhymes with the previous one and all the others;
  • ABBA - ring rhyme, within a quatrain, the first and last lines rhyme with each other, as well as the second and third.

In addition, patterns are often found in songs XAXA, AXXA and AAXA.

An example of a quatrain with the XAXA scheme.

For those who are looking for an answer to the question of how to write lyrics for a song, but do not have enough experience in this, it is useful to write down the schemes used and come up with words by holding them in front of you. Most likely, these will be the standard schemes given above, but based on them, you can come up with more interesting options. If you often write quatrains, try to get out of your comfort zone and increase the number of lines to six. If all lines rhyme in quatrains, then it might be worth adding at least one non-rhyming line. For example, 9 did this0005 Adele to "Hello":

Hello from the outside (A)
At least I can say that I've tried (A) 9005 sorry for breaking your heart (B)
But it don't matter; it clearly doesn't tear you apart (B) anymore

Nothing is perfect

Where musical theater lyrics are as much a part of the story as the screenplay, contemporary song classics often favor authenticity and colloquial realism over use so-called "ideal" rhymes. Modern writers strive to keep the lyrics simple and natural, so use the full range of rhymes and vocabulary available to you. You don't have to take everything literally: it's not about making all your rhymes perfect, but about you were not afraid to use any, even the simplest rhymes, if it is justified.

The spectrum of rhymes can be conditionally divided into 5 types:

  • Ideal rhymes — words end in the same vowels or consonants: love — carrot, fat — cat;
  • Exact - consonants or vowels in words are the same, which makes rhymes and words sound very similar: breathes - hears, white - ride;
  • Approximate, inaccurate - there are no letter matches or they are not exact, the words are more similar in their sound, not spelling: towards - cutting, way - paid;
  • Assonances - any consonants in a word that match vowels: blow - throat;
  • Consonances - any vowels in the word that sound the same consonants: hand - end;

In fact, there are many more types of rhymes, but in most texts, the authors resort to using precisely these varieties (for more information about the types of rhymes, you can read here).
Bite that tattoo on your shoulder
Pull the sheets right off the corner
Of the mattress that you stole
From your roommate back in  Boulder
We ain' t ever getting older

Rely on the sound

Don't pay attention to how rhymes look on paper - writing lyrics for a song, chasing only the beauty of letter combinations will not work. Play words aloud, sort through matching words and phrases, memorize the result you like. If the rhyme sounds great, be sure to use it.

Having a bunch of great-sounding rhymes on hand will make it easier for you to write the lyrics for the next song. It is enough to put together the found rhymes, arrange them in lines and put meaning into it in order to get a decent and memorable text.

As an example, consider Oscar Hammerstein II 's lyrics to 's "Oh, What a Beautiful Morning" . Line "The corn is as hight as an elephant's eye" fit perfectly into the lyrics and was remembered by millions of listeners. The trick is that this line was not invented by Hammerstein - the idiom about corn at the height of the eyes of an elephant existed long before the appearance of the song itself, Hammerstein simply appreciated the rhyme and found it a great use.

Another vivid example of how rhymes look bad on paper but fit perfectly on music is the legendary "Smells Like Teen Spirit":

A mulatto
ALBINO

A Mosquito
My LIBIDO

In these lines there is not much sense in these lines, but in the song context they sound excellent. At the same time, Cobain did not invent them on purpose, but simply put together a few words from the magazine that he read while writing the text.

What qualities should a text have in order to put it to music

This article discusses the necessary qualities of the text of the song, which will allow it to fit perfectly to the music. Each important point is considered in detail and at the end a list of all important points is briefly summarized. The article will help a novice songwriter or someone who is just interested in these issues.

Are there any differences between the text of a song and a poem

Writing the lyrics of a song is often a more difficult task than writing a poem. A poem is usually written in one meter, which does not change throughout the text. The poetic size is the characteristics of the poem, describing the length of the line by the number of syllables and the places of stress in these syllables.

As for the parts of a poem, usually these are quatrains, which, according to the semantic load, can be divided as follows - a plot, a narrative, a denouement, and some results or conclusions. It is not always possible to put the text of a poem to music, although wonderful songs have been written to some of the poems.

Song texts differ in rhythm and many other parameters from a poem.

Is the music ready by the time the lyrics are written

A lot depends on the answer to this question. If the task is to write a text for a finished melody, then the rhythm of the song is already given to you by the melody, that is, the length of all lines and the places of stress are already known.

To understand this rhythm, it is important that the melody of the voice be given in the music. It must be recorded either by some separate instrument, as is often done in karaoke arrangements, or you need a “sing-along” - the author of the music must sing at least some random syllables over the main music, the melody of the voice over the main music - La-la-la- la la la etc. You just have to write the text that will fit perfectly with this.

If you have music for a song in which the melody of the voice is not explicitly set, then on your shoulders the task is not only to write the text, but also to write the melody of the voice. And if you are not a composer, it will be quite difficult to perform it.

The content of the song should in any case correspond to the mood of the melody. Words of love will not fall on the music of a solemn anthem and vice versa. It is advisable to listen to the melody many times, to catch its character and mood in order to understand which subject of the text is better to choose.

If the author of the music asks you to write the lyrics of a song, he will most likely describe the task to you, set the theme of the song and its keywords.

If you create the text of a song, the music for which will be written later on the finished text, you can write on any subject and in any musical time. The answer to the question “how to come up with the lyrics of a song” is limited in this case only by your imagination and poetic gift.

What parts does a song consist of

A song consists of verses and a chorus, often it also contains a so-called bridge.

The verses of the song reveal its main content, and the refrains, as it were, sum up, convey the general meaning and main message of the song. It is desirable that the text of the chorus contains the name of the song, it should also grab attention, be remembered, and intrigue from the very first line. Then the song will have every chance to become a hit and fall in love with the audience.

The bridge is the link between a verse and the chorus, it often appears in the song once between the verse and the chorus. It may differ in rhythm from the verses and choruses of the song. Usually also the bridge is shorter than the other parts of the song and may be as short as two lines.

The time signature or rhythm of the song

It is difficult to give a short answer to the question of what words can be put to music, but one thing is for sure - the text must clearly correspond to the chosen musical rhythm or the so-called time signature of the parts of the song.

The musical meter or rhythm of a song may or may not correspond to any of the meter, the song has its own rhythm.

If in a poem the lines that rhyme must clearly match in the number of syllables, then in a song this rule is not necessarily observed, and the last line may differ significantly - be shorter or longer than the line with which it rhymes.

How lines rhyme in a song

As for the ways of rhyming lines, in songs, as in poems, there are a large number of them. 1-3 and 2-4 lines can rhyme, the so-called A-B-A-B rhyme, where A and A and B and B are rhymed lines.

Lines 1-2 and 3-4 can also rhyme - A-A-B-B.

A verse or chorus of a song can contain 6 lines and combine both rhyme options - А-В-А-В-А-А. Here lines 1-3, 2-4 and 5-6 rhyme. There are variants of more complex rhymes in songs - A-B-A-C, A-B-A-C - rhymes in lines 1-3, 5-7, and lines 2-6, 4-8 are also rhymed. Lines 2 and 6 may not rhyme, it is enough to rhyme the 4th and 8th lines - A-B-A-C, A-D-A-C.

And this is only a small part of all the ways of rhyming lines in a song. Under the same melody, different rhyming options for lines can be used, they are not set by music, but by the imagination of the author of the text.

Is rhyme obligatory in a song? Rhyming in a song is optional, provided the time signature is respected. But this does not mean that any non-rhyming text can be put to music and the same hit will turn out.

Lyrics without rhyme should capture attention, should not contain trite, hackneyed phrases, and should sound poetic without rhyme.

How to achieve melodious lyrics

When writing lyrics, you need to sing the words aloud or mentally so that the song retains melodiousness.

It is advisable to avoid combinations of words that are difficult to pronounce, several consonants at the end of a line, because of such moments it will be difficult for the performer to sing the words.

There is a strong opinion that there are vowels that are comfortable and uncomfortable for singing, but this is not so, for an experienced performer any vowels are not difficult.
