Re: Partial Lyrics Cause Unwanted Combining

(re-sending this as sent wrongly previously)

Thanks David, but I'm afraid it didn't quite work.

If I do this...

---------------snippet1-starts-----
    \new Staff { \clef bass

           \new Voice \relative c { c4 c s1*0 }
           {
             <<
                 \new Voice = "pabadaba" \relative g { g8
                      f e d   }
                 \new Lyrics \lyricsto "pabadaba" { pa
                    ba da ba }
             >>
---------------snippet1-ends------

... it has the same effect as before (i.e. notes "e" and "g" wrongly
put on the top of each other).

If I do this...

---------------snippet2-starts-----
    \new Staff { \clef bass

           \new Voice \relative c { c4 c  }
           {
             <<
                 \new Voice = "pabadaba" \relative g { g8
                      f e d  s1*0 }
                 \new Lyrics \lyricsto "pabadaba" { pa
                    ba da ba }
             >>
---------------snippet2-ends------

... then the notes are correct, but the "pa ba da ba" lyrics do not
appear at all and the error trail goes as follows:
