  We define families of aperiodic words associated to Lorenz knots that arise
naturally as syllable permutations of symbolic words corresponding to torus
knots. An algorithm to construct symbolic words of satellite Lorenz knots is
defined. We prove, subject to the validity of a previous conjecture, that
Lorenz knots coded by some of these families of words are hyperbolic, by
showing that they are neither satellites nor torus knots and making use of
Thurston's theorem. Infinite families of hyperbolic Lorenz knots are generated
in this way, to our knowledge, for the first time. The techniques used can be
generalized to study other families of Lorenz knots.
