A song is a relatively short musical composition. Songs contain vocal parts that are performed with the human voice and generally feature words (lyrics), commonly accompanied by other musical instruments (exceptions would be a cappella and scat songs). The words of songs are typically of a poetic, rhyming nature, although they may be religious verses or free prose.
