Now, although `lyrics_c` is a silly way to write a lyric line,
`lyrics_b` seems reasonable to me. Is there a better way to define a
lyric line in a `parallelMusic` definition so that lilypond doesn’t
complain? And if not, is there a way to suppress these barcheck
failure warnings?

From NR §1.2.5:

    Note that bar check marks in lyrics are evaluated at the musical
    moment when the syllable following the check mark is processed. If
    the lyrics are associated with the notes of a voice which has a
    rest at the beginning of a bar, then no syllable can be located at
    the start of that bar and a warning will be issued if a bar check
    mark is placed in the lyrics at that position.

So basically explicit bar markings and lyrics just don’t play nicely together?

Set the context property ignoreBarChecks might work.
(I'm not a parallel music writer.)

I’ll look into that.

Thanks for the help!

Best,

Galen
