Subverted rhyme

A subverted rhyme, teasing rhyme or mind rhyme is the suggestion of a rhyme which is left unsaid and must be inferred by the listener. A rhyme may be subverted either by stopping short, or by replacing the expected word with another (which may have the same rhyme or not). Teasing rhyme is a form of innuendo, where the unsaid word is taboo or completes a sentence indelicately. An example, in the context of cheerleading: Raa Raa REE!Kick 'em in the knee!Raa Raa RASS!Kick 'em in the other knee!
