I am a slow typist, and I prefer to type it in once, then duplicate 
using copy and paste wherever neccessary. But like you, I find it 
slow to click-assign one note at a time, and am happy to have all the 
lyrics in order first, then opt-click assign 'em all in one happy go. 
I like the feeling I get, like when I use a power tool to accomplish 
a hard job. Or when I use TG Tools... 8-)
