You're relying on several short-cuts here,
which occasionally do not work the way you
expect. When inexplicable errors occur it
is often useful to add all the \new ...
commands explicitly.
Also the syntax of the override command is
incorrect. As Mats said, most of the problems
will go away if you read the Learning Manual
(again, if necessary) and apply what you learn
there.
Slightly trickier is changing the fontsize of
all Lyrics (only). The easiest way is to set
the fontsize of LyricText in the Score context.

Subject: override lyric font size
Hello,
Here I want to change the font size of the lyrics. I've placed
\override #' font-size = # -2
before \addlyrics, just after it, inside the brackets, and various
other
combinations with << >>. How do I make the lyrics smaller here?
And probably more important, is there a way I should be looking at
this
problem that will allow me to figure similar ones out by myself?
(example: I can't figure out why the extra { } is required inside
\score { }.)
\version "2.12.2"
\layout {
ragged-right = ##f
}
\score {
{
\set Staff.instrumentName = "1"
\clef bass
\time 2/4
\relative c {
c8 c c4 d8 d d4 e8 e e4 c2 \bar "|."
}
\addlyrics {One and Two One and Two }
}
}
Thanks,
Gerard
