So, for your original request this should work:
\version "2.19.21"
start =
#(define-scheme-function (parser location syllable)(markup?)
(format "[~a" syllable))
end =
#(define-scheme-function (parser location syllable)(markup?)
(format "~a]" syllable))
wrap =
#(define-scheme-function (parser location syllable)(markup?)
(format "[~a]" syllable))
theNotes = {
\relative { e''1 d c d e }
}
theWords = \lyricmode {
Three \start blind \end mice are \wrap alive
}
\score
{
\new StaffGroup
<<
\new Voice = "voice" \theNotes
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "voice" \theWords
>>
}
But when you also want to do other stuff like coloring it won't because
I don't know how to write a function that returns an override (a music
expression) *and* a string (for the lyrics) at the same time.
Although this must be pretty standard functionality, I think ...
