Is there a way to control the vertical spacing between the lines of the lyrics? I want to reduce the spacing slightly between the lines to see if I can get a
piece to fit on one page. I tried playing with these but to no avail.

\override Score.LyricSpace #'padding = #0
\override Score.LyricSpace #'minimum-distance = #0
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

The following might help...
Regards

\version "2.16.0"
<<
  \new Staff \new Voice = melody \relative c' {
    c4 d e f
    g4 f e d
    c1
  }
  \new Lyrics \lyricsto melody { aa aa aa aa aa aa aa aa aa }
\new Lyrics \lyricsto melody { aa aa aa aa aa aa aa aa aa }

  \new Staff {
    \new Voice = melody \relative c' {
      c4 d e f
      g4 f e d
      c1
    }
  }
   \new Lyrics \with
{ \override VerticalAxisGroup #'nonstaff-nonstaff-spacing = #'((basic-distance . 1.5)) %adjusting this value seems to work...
  }

  \lyricsto melody { aa aa aa aa aa aa aa aa aa }
  \new Lyrics \lyricsto melody { bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb bb }
