Re: Key Signature only on first staff

[Malte Meyn]

You have to insert the \omit commands not in the first bar but later. 
The following code hopefully does what you want. Explanation: I used a 
spacer rest (s1) in global. Because this would move not only the \omits 
but also the beginning of the melody, I moved the \global from the 
beginning of the melody to the \new Staff, where melody and global are 
now simultaneous.

\version "2.19.22"

global = {
  \time 4/4
  \tempo 4=90
  \key b \major
  s1
  \omit Staff.KeySignature
  \omit Staff.Clef
}

melody = \relative c' {
  \repeat unfold 10 { cis dis e fis }
}

wordsOne = \lyricmode{
  \set stanza = "1"
  c d e f g
}
wordsTwo = \lyricmode{
  \set stanza = "2"
  c d e f g
}

\score {
  <<
    \new Staff <<
      \global
      \melody
    >>
    \addlyrics { \wordsOne }
    \addlyrics { \wordsTwo }
  >>
}
