It seems there's no doc on that

\score{
  <
    \context Staff \notes\relative c'' {
      c4 c8 c c
      c c c c4
    }
    \context Lyrics \lyrics {
       hi4 _8 _ there
       hi _8*2 there
    }

}

But maybe addlyrics can work for you:

\score{
  \addlyrics
    \context Staff \notes\relative c'' {
      c c c c
      c c c c
    }
    \context Lyrics \lyrics {
       hi _ _ there
       hi \repeat "unfold" 2 { " " } there
    }
}
