fine-tuning Lyrics size

Folks, using \override LyricText #'font-size = #'-1 to make the lyrics smaller is too coarse for me. In my particular case, there is both Italian lyrics and a German translation (using a cursive font shape), and I have to make the cursive text just a bit smaller. AFAIK, LilyPond converts
