Try to add the following to your file:

\score{
  ...
  \paper{
    ...
    \translator{
      \ScoreContext
%%% Choose which one of the following lines you want to uncomment
%      StanzaNumber \override #'break-align-symbol = #'Time_signature
      StanzaNumber \override #'break-align-symbol = #'begin-of-note
    }
  }
}

I don't know why the stanza numbers are aligned with the clefs by
default. I agree with you that it looks bad.
