Non-lyric text in lyrics

I've googled for this, and looked through the lilypond snippets repository, and can't find anything.

I'm trying to insert instructions mixed up with lyrics.  Actually its just the name of the singer, but the name changes half-way through and changing vocalName doesn't seem to do the right thing.

In case that's not very clear, I'm trying to set a duet in three stanzas.  In each stanza, one singer sings the first half and then both sing the second half together.  I'm trying to put 'Singer 1', 'Singer 2' etc at the start of the lyrics for each stanza, then 'Both' in half-way through, in a way that doesn't count as a syllable and creates some extra space in the notation.

Thanks for any advice.
Tom
