This idea (lyrics in parallelStaffs) seems not easy to implement and
it would be rarely handy. For example: by rests in particural voice I
can avoid "sylable has no note attached" error only using \skip
function.
I decided not to fead lyrics to parallelStaffs function, but
anotherway (in \score) lyrics goes above or below Grandstaff only. I
can't imagine how to place lyrics directly by staff they belongs, when
in Lily code the lyrics are not in direct sequence to this staff or
voice.

Any hints?
