Basically, the answer is found in the section on "Vertical spacing".
There, you can see how to change the minimumVerticalExtent for
a Staff, but you can do exactly the same for a Lyrics context.
To find the default value, go to Program Reference -> Translation ->
Contexts -> Lyrics.
If you need more details, search the mailing list archives.

Hello,
I've been trying to figure this out for months and months--ever since I started
using Lilypond, anyway.
I've looked at the documentation (2.6.4), and I could not find a way to change
the vertical spacing, or padding, or whatever it is in this case, between
verses of lyrics (stanzas). I've found ways to change the horizontal, however.
Preferably, I would like to do it with addlyrics. Is there a way to remove
*all* vertical padding and spacing between stacked verses?
Anyway, if you know how, please tell me as much information as you can.
I suppose this would be done with something like \override someCommand
#'verticalPadding = #0.0
or such, but I don't know where to put it, even if I knew what commands to use.
If I had the following:
\addlyrics
{
\stanza = "1. "
here are some ly -- rics
}
\addlyrics
{
\stanza = "2. "
here are ly -- rics for the se -- cond verse
}
How would I make those two stanzas closer together, veritcally?
