Folks,
using
\override LyricText #'font-size = #'-1
to make the lyrics smaller is too coarse for me.
Hi, Werner,
sorry if I misunderstood you - the solution just seems to obvious to
imagine that you could not have found it.
You can use decimal values (well, actually every real value if you
really want to), and the default 'font-size for Lyrics is 1, not 0 (as
would be expected).
Of course, you're the font guy; it's no news for you that exploiting
x-heights and so on would be nice, but we're not there yet...
HTH,
Alexander
