Phil,
many thanks. That's nearly what I need. But there is one nasty thing I 
could not solve. There are two measures where the rhythm is differs 
between singer and piano right hand.

I have annotated this in the second measure with an ossia that would 
have the singer's melody. But I have no idea how I can "connect" this 
ossia notes to the lyrics.

I want to skip the singers staff to save space. Therefore I don't want 
to print the ossia. It shows only how I want to deal with the lyrics 
syllables. Any other (invisible) set of notes would do it. Can you help 
here?

Advice appreciated and accepted. ;-)
