Hehe, yes. Unfortunately, what we are collecting there is not
completely suitable for German hyphenation of lyrics, since we
(currently) have patterns for etymologically derived hyphenation
only. In addition, the current minimum distance between two
hyphenation points is two letters, to avoid something like
Heutzutage gehen immer weniger Zuschauer in The-
ater, egal ob Opernaufführungen oder Sprechthea-
ter.
For lyrics, you definitely need `The-a-ter'...
