None of these words rhymes with Lisbon /ˈlizbən/. Ribbon /ˈrɪbən/ is the closest in sound: it ends with the same unstressed -bon, but after the stressed vowel Lisbon has /z/ before /b/, while ribbon does not. Bonus /ˈboʊnəs/ looks like 'bon' at the start but has a long /oʊ/ sound and a different ending. Prison /ˈprɪzən/ and wisdom /ˈwɪzdəm/ share the /ɪz/ sequence of Lisbon's first syllable, but their endings differ. Bison /ˈbaɪsən/ and lesson /ˈlɛsən/ are spelling lookalikes and are pronounced with different vowels.
