I'm trying to enclose some lyrics within square brackets but, for
reasons too tedious to trouble the list with*, I'd like to parameterise
the brackets using the \foo and \fooEnd constructs in the following
pseudocode. Is there a way to do this without causing "[" and "]" to be
set as separate syllables?
hopefully,

* it has to do with differentiating lyrics in renaissance music: black,
coloured, or editorial.
\version "2.19.21"
foo = "["
fooEnd = "]"
theNotes = {
\relative { e''1 d c }
}
theWords = \lyricmode {
Three \foo blind \fooEnd mice,
}
\score
{
\new StaffGroup
<<
\new Voice = "voice" \theNotes
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "voice" \theWords
>>
}
