             full rhyme:
             Beastie Boys "Body Movin"
             "Body movin, body movin,
             A1 sound, sound so soothing
             Body movin, body movin,
             We be getting down and you know we're crush groovin
            
             Let me get some action from the back section
             We need body rocking not perfection
             Let your back bone flip but don't slip a disc
             Let your spine unwind just take a risk
             I wanna do the freak until the break of dawn
             Tell me party people is that so wrong
             The ship is docking, inter-lockin
             And up-rockin electro-shocking
             We're getting down computer action
             Do the robotic satisfaction
             All of y'all get off the wall"
            
             assonance:
             Spice Girls "Last Time Lover"
             "Cool sexy, ever ready, someone fine, always steady, gentle hands, dirty mind, use your head and don't be blind"
             metaphor:
             Counting Crows, "Long December"
             "The feeling that it's a whole lot of oysters, but no pearls"
             imagery:
             Splender "I Think God Can Explain"
             "The sent of Vaseline
             in the summertime
             The feel of an ice cube
             Melting overtime
             The world seems bigger
             Than both of us
             Yet it seems so small
             when I begin to cry"
             hyperbole:
             Dire Straits "Romeo and Juliet"
             "Juliet when we made love you used to cry
             you said I love you like the stars above I'll love you till i die"
             personification:
             Ben Harper, "Forever"
             "Not talkin' 'bout a year
             no not three or four
             I don't want that kind of forever
             in my life anymore
             forever always seems
             to be around when it begins
             but forever never seems
             to be around when it ends
             so give me your forever
             please your forever
             not a day less will do
             from you
            
             People spend so much time
             every single day
             runnin' 'round all over town
             givin' their forever away
             but no not me
             I won't let my forever roam
             and now I hope I can find
             my forever a home
             so give me your forever
             please your forever
             not a day less wil...
