Not really. Maybe just for fun. I have no songs spelled out in my tales like, say, Tolkien did.
I dont think it would be much different from poetry, but maybe....
I've been known to fudge lyrics when playing the guitar.

I wrote a remix of Katy Perrys song "hot and cold".

I've been in bands most of my life.
A couple years ago, when writing had faded into the background for a bit, I wrote a small batch of songs, music and lyrics. I like them OK, but assume they aren't very relatable. I tend to write intellectual (not that I'm all that smart) observational pieces mostly. They're aimed more at the brain than the heart, so I've got that going against me.
They might go over better if they were dumbed down a bit, perhaps, but that's a skill I haven't practiced much.
