I hope I'm not being to inpatient, but I really need to have this score
done asap.

As it seems the example is too complicated I'll just summarize in a very
basic manner what I'm trying to do:

In the piece I have an intro with only one fixed part of text going

{ Dong dong dong dong }

immediately following this part come the Verses which have two stanzas,
so my problem is I need to have the verses' lyrics to come AFTER the
intro part and not in parallel, and additionaly of course I want BOTH
stanza's to be shown in parallel (which is the default behavior).

This is my primary problem atm, the next thing would be that after the
verses comes the chorus where all 4 voices have the same lyrics and I'd
like to only have to assign the text to a variable once, e.g.

chorus = \lyricmode { ....}

and then somehow append that to the

\context Lyrics = voicename \lyricsto voicename \sopranText

part, but after that the voices split up so each has their own lyrics
again, how do I do that, especially thinking of the fact that I have
repetitions with alternating endings to the bridge and chorus parts.

As always I'm eternally grateful for every piece of advice, if you have
a solution even only for part of my problems, PLEASE DO TELL.
