If you want crosses in a chord, you can use \tweak:
<es \tweak #'style #'cross g'>4
However since the polyphony comes in the middle of the score it's not

Since you've got different beats for the lyrics and the claps in some cases
(e.g. the first blah & clap), it's the only method which will work properly.
Here's a short example it won't compile though it does in score. Though

The problem is using shorthand polyphonic notation, << { } \\ { } >>, which
creates two new voice contexts; have a look at section 6.3.3, "Basic
polyphony", for an explanation. By using this, you have three voice contexts
in your fluteMusic section: "flute", "1" and "2".
Since your notes are effectively in a new context "2", the lyrics context
can't find them.
The solution is to keep the notes in the "flute" voice and create a new
voice for the claps:
\version "2.10.25"
crossesOn = \override NoteHead #'style = #'cross
crossesOff = \revert NoteHead #'style
fluteMusic =
\relative c'' {
%page 19-voice I
\tempo 4=120
\time 5/4 <<
{ \voiceTwo %stems go down
es,4 f8 g4 aes8 bes4 c des4 c8 es4 c8 des4 c bes4. g r2 %This is still in
"flute" context, so lyrics can see these notes
\oneVoice } %back to normal stem behaviour
\new Voice { \voiceOne %stems up for this voice
\crossesOn g'4. g g4 g4 |g4. g g4 g4 |g4. g g4 g4 } >> %New voice for claps
with stems up. We don't need \crossesOff, since this voice dies here
r1 r4 es,4 f8 g4 aes8 bes4 c des4 c8 es4 des8 f4 es
}
fluteLyrics = \lyricmode {
%19-I
bah bah bah bah bah bah bah bah bah bah bah bah bah bah
bah bah bah bah bah bah bah bah bah bah bah bah
}
\score {<<
\new Voice = "flute" \fluteMusic
\new Lyrics \lyricsto flute \fluteLyrics
>>
\layout { }
}
Regards,
Neil
