Why not just use two voices on the single staff, with separate lyrics to each voice, and spacer rests where the voice isn't singing?

I can switch stem direction with \stemUp and \stemDown, and I can use \set Staff.instrumentName to change the name as well. But is there some command to change the lyrics' vertical placement so-to-speak on the fly? With a single voice? Usince \set Lyrics.alignAboveContext = "staff" doesn't seem to work. Or is there some smarter way to do this, maybe using partcombine or something? Thanks for the help!
