I don't think we even mention that possibility at all. Wrong; see http://www.lilypond.org/doc/v2.17/Documentation/notation/common-notation-for-vocal-music#entering-lyrics and http://www.lilypond.org/doc/v2.17/Documentation/notation/common-notation-for-vocal-music#manual-syllable-durations > Anything else except changing the rhythm of the lyrics.

Making the override work as might be expected in << { c'2 c' d' d' } \new Lyrics { \lyricmode { \override LyricText #'self-alignment-X = #CENTER foo2 bar la mmm } } >> would be helpful, as Janek has suggested.
