A lyricist is a writer who specializes in song lyrics. A singer who writes the lyrics to songs is a singer-lyricist. This differentiates from a singer-songwriter, who also composes the song's melody in addition to the lyrics.

Collaboration

Collaboration takes different forms. Some composers and lyricists work closely together on the song, with each having an input into both words and tune. Often a lyricist will fill in the words to a tune already fully written out. Dorothy Fields worked in this way. Lyricists have often added words to an established tune, as Johnny Burke did with the Erroll Garner tune Misty. Some partnerships work almost totally independently, for example, Bernie Taupin famously writes lyrics and hands them over to Elton John, who then sets them to music, with minimum interaction between the two men.

A. The media, films and newspapers are filled with stories of the extra curricular romantic activities of people in the film, television and music industries - if you've noticed the field of politics seems to have it's fair of coverage to. Here's what you won't read in the newspapers there are people working in hospitals, banking, hospitality, retail, and law who cheat on their partners The real question here is why you're so insecure. If there's been no hint of sexual infidelity in the previous two years are your boyfriends character and ethics so lacking in substance this has to be a constant cause for concern. Are you afraid of younger prettier women - cause once you're 20+ there's always going to be someone younger and prettier! Hon… [cont.]

A. It shouldnt be very hard. There virtually arent any country "artists", if you can call them that, that write their own music. If you can write worth a damn, you could probably get picked up in no time. -J.

A. It depends how established the song writer is, I know some don't even charge unless you make money off the song its self, but if its someone who's written lots of stuff, for well known people, it will cost a good amount.
