Because the whole point of \addlyrics/\lyricsto is to ignore durations
and instead take items one-by-one irrespective of their length?
One _might_ do
%%%%%%%%%%%
\version "2.19.32"
% modified from ly/music-functions-init.ly
skip =
#(define-music-function (dur) ((ly:duration? (ly:make-duration 2)))
(_i "Skip forward by @var{dur}.")
(make-music 'SkipMusic
'duration dur))
<<
{ 4 2 4 }
\addlyrics { test \skip \default test }
>>
%%%%%%%%%%%
but it doesn’t make much of a difference. (It would if \skip\default
would inherit a duration just like a note with implicit duration; is
that possible via make-music?)
