Description

This relates a release or track to the person who wrote its lyrics. "Lyrics" in this case are sequences of words in a particular language, in a form that can be written down. Nonsense vocal sounds and noises are generally not considered to be lyrics, and nor are interjections ("oh yeah!", "c'mon!") which don't form a meaningful component of the lyrics.

Guidelines

The Garbage song Push It contains some lyrics taken from the song Don't Worry Baby written by Brian Wilson and Roger Christian. In this case, the last two could be credited as "additional" lyricists on the track, since those lyrics form only a minor part of the song.

The lyricist should not be confused with the librettist, which is handled by the librettist relationship type.
