The selected snippet "Isolated percent repeats" at the bottom of this
page should give you an idea:
http://kainhofer.com/~lilypond/Documentation/user/lilypond/Short-repeats.html#Short-repeats.
This uses a multi-measure rest with the percent-repeat print
function.
To get the lyrics aligned, you'll have to use a hidden note in
parallel with the percent-repeat rest.
