--> Mario stood by the sea.
--> All that water really made him have to go...
--> (The camera zooms.)
--> Straighten his tie.
--> (Chorus.)
** The last verse [[DoubleSubversion subverts this]]:
--> Mario had an aunt whose name was Enis.
--> But she took a [[GroinAttack hammer and smashed his one and only]]...
--> (Mario is hit so hard his brain flies out.)
--> (Scene of Mario in his grave, chorus.)

{{Subverted Rhyme|EveryOccasion}}s in web original media.
----

* The trope title itself is an example. If you don't get it...we can wait.
* ''Blog/CakeWrecks'' does it twice in the description of a [[http://www.cakewrecks.com/home/2011/6/30/my-new-favorite-wedding-cake.html wedding cake that appears to have sperm on it]] First "Roses are red, / Butterflies are blue, / Um... / Pardon me, but are those sperm on your wedding cake?" and then in Poem Option #3: Roses are red / And cake can be pretty. / How sad for you, 'cause yours looks all...''[eyeing children]''...unpleasant.
* ''WebVideo/YuGiOhTheAbridgedSeries''
** Lampshaded in the duel against the rhyming Paradox Brothers.
-->'''Para''': We are villains who like to rhyme...\\
'''Dox''': In fact, we do it all the time. \\
'''Para''': You may think it's rather crass...\\
'''Dox''': But you can stick your cards right up your nose. \\
'''Para''': You were supposed to say "ass," brother. I thought we rehearsed this.
** Also played straight in the second Christmas special:
--->The Pharoh awoke the very next day, \\
Wearing an outfit that made him look...uh, handsome.
** And in "LEATHER PANTS~"
---> '''Marik''': We don't want vinyl or chinos or briefs / I am a criminal and he is a thief / and we are hot / hot, hot hot / we are quite sexy. \\
'''Bakura''': Marik, that doesn't quite rhyme. \\
'''Marik''': SHUT UP I AM [[Music/LadyGaga LADY GAGA]]!
* A cult Website/YouTube video parodies the Music/{{Nickelback}} song ''Rockstar'' with new lyrics lampooning pop singers such as Britney Spears and Ashlee Simpson:
-->I'm gonna dress myself without an ounce of class,\\
Gonna make the boys all drool and stare at my...glasses
* Used cleverly on multiple occasions in ''Commentary! The Musical'', the musical commentary to ''WebVideo/DoctorHorriblesSingAlongBlog'':
--->Ten Dollar Solo. Not bad so far\\
There's internal rhyme\\
Although not every instance\\
And the meter is occasionally a little bit bizarre
** and, as sung by Nathan Fillion:
---->My wonderful me-ness\\
My hammer the peee--\\
ople can tell\\
That I'm awfully swell...
*** [[DontExplainTheJoke Note that "The hammer is my penis" is an actual line that Nathan Fillion's character says in the original film.]]
* In ''WebAnimation/ZeroPunctuation's'' review of ''VideoGame/SaintsRow2'':
-->Roses are red\\
Violets are blue\\
Your house is covered\\
In piles of excrement
* Similar to the above example. Creator/{{Laina}} has a nice Valentine's Day poem:
-->Roses are red, Violets are blue\\
Be my Valentine, I'm waiting for you\\
Blood is red, bruises are blue \\
[[spoiler:Don't say no.]]
* [[http://www.cabel.name Cabel Sasser]] does this in ''[[http://www.cabel.name/2006/12/buggy-saints-row-musical.html Buggy Saints Row: The Musical]]'':
-->My car door's freaking out; it seems to be forever
-->In the concrete barricade; I wonder how I'm ever going to drive away.
-->This really isn't my day.
-->Sparks are flying, people dying, metal frying,
-->And I wonder if there's more to life or if I'll find that this is really it.
-->This game is a piece of work.
* In [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5xcMxnNzp2I&feature=channel_page this]] ''WebVideo/ImAMarvelAndImADC'' episode with SelfDemonstrating/{{Deadpool}} singing: I'm sure that his power ring's a lot of fun / but can it ever really be as cool as my M16 with laser sided scope oh my ''GOD I'' love this thing.
* ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CnHgH1uybZY Break It Down]]'', a short skit from the people who would later form Tally Hall, includes the following plan to make a quick buck:
-->"I have a better plan\\
I'll marry a wealthy man."\\
"Wouldn't that make you gay?"\\
"Not neccesari-lay...\\
...I'll sleep in a separate bed,\\
and I'll refrain from giving...\\
''[beat]''\\
...kisses."
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D_DyEJEfohU This video]] celebrating Creator/StephenFry reaching one million followers on Twitter.
* ''WebVideo/{{Smosh}}''
** The video ''Franchise/{{Transformers}} Rap'' does this.
--->'''Ian''': The Transformers creators wouldn't pay us to make this rap\\
They told us that the script was full of NONSENSE!\\
[[DontExplainTheJoke I bet you thought I was gonna say "crap", cause it rhymes with "rap"]], but I'm better than that!
* ''WebVideo/TheKeyOfAwesome''
** In their parody of ''Film/TheDarkKnight'', Alfred almost reveals Batman's identity to the Joker:
--->''Joker, are you busy? Let's call a truce.\\
I need you to help explain the plot to...Batman.''
** They also have this verse in their parody of [[Music/KatyPerry "California Girls"]]:
--->Nose jobs, tummy tucks
-->These are the girls I like to...hang out with.
* ''WebAnimation/YouTubePoop: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=24Pj7obyMZY THE EPIC MOVIE]]'':
-->''Nachos, lemon head, my dad's boat\\
You won't go down 'cause my dick can [[spoiler: '''[[RunningGag EFFORT!!]]''']]''
* ''Theatre/AVeryPotterMusical's'' "Back to Hogwarts"
** Hermione sings:
--->''But let's not forget that we need to perform well\\
In class if we want to pass our... [=OWLs=].''
** And of course:
--->''You're tall and fun and pretty\\
You're really, really skinny...\\
CHO CHANG!''
* ''WebVideo/CelebrityBricABracTheater'' has Creator/JohnMadden in the boots of Santa Claus. And we hear him exclaim as he rides out of sight:
-->''Merry Christmas to everybody and also goodnight to everybody!''
* ''Machinima/RedVsBlue Revelation''
** The soundtrack has a track called "Your Best Friend" where [[TheDitz Caboose]] sings about his [[VitriolicBestBuds friendship]] with [[{{Jerkass}} Church]]. It's full of this trope.
-->''Remember that time that I saved your life? You were happy, I could tell.\\
You said something about how I was smart and I make your life a living heaven.\\
We do everything together like hide and go seek, your favorite game.\\
But I'm so glad that we found each other and I know you feel the identical way as me.
** In the soundtrack for Season 9, Tucker's song "Bow Chicka Wow Wow Wow" has a variation that's something of a cross between this and RhymingWithItself.
--->''I'm so alone out in this canyon\\
Not one single girl in this canyon\\
Or anything rhyming with canyon\\
So call on me if you need a companion''
** It also has "Donut: The Musical", which is literally nothing but subversions and double entendres, sung by AmbiguouslyGay and/or CampStraight Donut. The main lyric is "Let me blow you... ''[uncomfortably long pause]'' ...away"; you can work out the rest on your own.
* The ''Website/YouTube'' video "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I6XLswqiX0s Pale kid raps fast]]" has these lyrics:
-->''I'm five foot eleven of sex\\
From the tip of my head to my gorgeous... knees.''
* ''Website/JibJab'' does this with "The Year 2008 in Review," sung to the tune of "Miss Susie." One example:
-->'''Baby Year 2008:''' UsefulNotes/{{Barack|Obama}} ''[sic]'' defeated Johnny\\
So long to the far-right.\\
Now [=McCain=] has many houses,\\
But none of them are...\\
White men got passed over,\\
From Wasilla [[UsefulNotes/SarahPalin she]] was plucked;\\
When the maverick tapped a hockey mom\\
The press said, "What the..."\\
Truck bombs in Islamabad;\\
Bill Gates up and quit.\\
Putin stuck his chest out,\\
Told the Georgians to eat...\\
Ships were seized by pirates,\\
Ike and Gustav hit,\\
Johnny's honey had a baby,\\
But he said it wasn't...\\
[=HIIIIISSS-tory's=] now littered\\
With more famines, floods and wars.\\
If there's one thing I am grateful for,\\
It's that this job's now YOOOOUUUURS!
* The ''WebVideo/FriendshipIsWitchcraft'' episode "Neigh, Soul Sister" features a couple of these in Sweetie Belle's song about the big race:
-->[[AC:The race has begun\\
We must run fast\\
Jump over the mud\\
Having a good time]]
::and
-->[[AC:Making tacky jelly\\
Put it on your head\\
We're gonna win the race\\
Because I am a good racer!]]
** The opening line of her earlier song might qualify, depending on where she was going with it:
--->[[AC:Just because you feel upset\\
Does not mean you have to yell]]
* In WebVideo/TheNostalgiaChick's ''WesternAnimation/TheLorax'' episode, she speaks in rhyme several times throughout, the final verse being:
-->''It burns me like this cheap whisky,\\
Right down to my thorax.\\
I'm your Nostalgia Chick,\\
And I speak...for [[Literature/TheLorax underrated Dr. Seuss books from the 1970s]].''
* The LiteralMusicVideo for [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HTPko-aXvJM Anything For Love]] contains the following lines as Music/{{Meatloaf}} appears to nuzzle his head in his co-star's cleavage:
-->''I hope it fits\\
You've got real nice...\\
Where'd my make-up go?\\
It must have rubbed off between ''your boobs!''''
* [[http://www.sporcle.com/games/bgkamp/game-of-thrones-character-limericks Sporcle]]'s ''Series/GameOfThrones'' limerick quiz has this little ditty.
-->This guy he has all the worst luck.
-->He could have been quite the young buck.
-->But he'll stay rather small,
-->Cuz he had a bad fall,
-->After seeing two Lannisters kiss.
* ''WebVideo/UltraFastPony'': "I'm a poet and I didn't even realize it."
* In the [[http://www.kongregate.com/games/zeebarf/the-several-journeys-of-reemus Prologue game]] of ''VideoGame/TheSeveralJourneysOfReemus'' game, Liam the bear sings one of two short ballads at the end, depending on whether you got the "Reckless" or "Legendary" ending. The last two lines of the "Legendary" ballad fall under this trope:
-->''Now the townsfolk gossip about this ingenious trick\\
Instead of the length of Reemus' ... hair''
* Several times in ''WebVideo/DontHugMeImScared'':
-->'''Yellow''': It's quarter to 8, there's fish on my plate\\
'''Green''': It's 20 past day, there's fish on my tray\\
'''Yellow''': It's eleven to twelve, there's fish in the bath\\
'''Red''': It's 9:30, there's fish everywhere\\
\\
-->'''Tony''': There's a time and a place for mucking around!\\
'''Green''': Like birthdays!\\
'''Red''': Or camping!\\
'''Yellow''': I'm friends with my dad...\\
\\
'''Green''': Oh look, there he goes, flying through the sky.\\
'''Red''': Maybe we should follow him, or we'll get left behind.\\
'''Green''': But there's still lots of chicken left, and I'd like to eat the chicken.\\
'''Red''': I'd also like to eat the chicken. Let's do that instead.
* Parody artist Jon Cozart, a.k.a. ''WebVideo/{{Paint}}'':
** In "After Ever After 2", Cozart dodges the obvious rhyme for Mulan's sex change operation.
---> I sank like a brick / Prince thinks I'm sick / Ice is melting quick / Now I have a ... lot of self esteem
** In "Boy Brand", the Music/OneDirection part almost ends with a curse before being shushed.
---> We all know we're beautiful / That's what makes you buy our shhhhhh...
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VfCYZ3pks48 "Sex Offender Shuffle"]]:
-->''Charles Dolling, dropping rhymes''\\
''I've been arrested seven times''\\
''I know that sounds like a lot''\\
''But three of those times were for vandalism''
* ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=miomuSGoPzI Chicken Attack]]'' by Portal A and the Gregory Brothers, starring Chicken Yodeller Music/TakeoIschi:
-->You should know that a man with the power of nature
-->Can bring you to the end of your luck
-->And you should know by my stride and the look in my eye
-->That you're about to be massively...
-->Forced to give up!
** Subverted later in the same song, when the lyric "massively fucked" is used.
* ''Literature/WhateleyUniverse'': In conjunction with CurseCutShort and LastSecondWordSwap. In [[http://whateleyacademy.net/index.php/original-timeline/768-blood-sister-blood-brother Blood Sister, Blood Brother]]:
--> Miss Mary had a steamboat, the steamboat had a bell
--> Miss Mary went to Heaven, the steamboat went to
--> Hello operator, please give me number Nine
--> And if you disconnect me, I’ll kick you from
--> Behind the frigerator, there lies a piece of glass
--> Miss Mary sat upon it and broke her little
--> Ask me no more questions, I’ll tell you no more lies
--> The boys are in the bathroom, a zipping up their
--> Flies are in the city, the bees are in the park
--> Miss Mary and her boyfriend are kissing in the D-A-R-K
--> D-A-R-K
--> D-A-R-K
--> Dark, Dark, Dark!
