Lyric Writing 101

The contemporary lyricist can often draw from current events:
They're going after Google
They're coming for the Pope
something something something
Gonna smoke a lotta dope ...
Third line in this form is usually the most difficult. Do remember that "Google" is difficult to rhyme. And that David Peel was the first professional to rhyme "Pope" w/ "dope".
