    Songs have three main purposes: to entertain listeners, for artists to express their feelings, and sometimes to convey morals hidden in lyrics. They use imagery, rhythm, and figures of speech to do this. Most songs have a verse to tell the story, a refrain that is repeated, and a coda for the ending. Rhyme is also commonly used, where words have matching terminal sounds. Finally, songs can be used for social functions like entertainment, expression of emotions, commentary, patriotism, and setting the tone for events.
