Re: WANTED: COMPOSER/LYRIST/PLAYWRITES


I've never known a play that could write - usually that's the job of the playwright.

Similarly, did you hear about the lyricist who wrote a song about his lyrebird collection (he was something of a lyrist, apparently) ?

You're only half wright, Tim.

I too thought that a quip was due about musicians who could play the lyre, but I looked it up and discovered that 'lyrist' is a perfectly correct and valid alternative for 'lyricist'.

Gotta love dictionary.com before jumping the gun...

Cheers,
Craig
