You should be able to find several examples in the mailing list
archives. The basic ideas are described in the section on "Vertical
spacing inside a system".

I went there per your suggestion and tried tweaking the minimum-y-extent
but I was unable to make it any better.

Really? The following example shows the difference you can
obtain:

\version "2.10.0"

% Default layout:
\score{
<<
\new Staff \new Voice = m \relative c'{ c4 d e f g f e d c1 }
\new Lyrics \lyricsto m {aa aa aa aa aa aa aa aa aa }
>>
}

% Reducing the minimum space below the Staff and above the Lyrics:
\score{
<<
\new Staff \with {\override VerticalAxisGroup #'minimum-Y-extent = #'(-1 . 4)}
 \new Voice = m \relative c'{ c4 d e f g f e d c1 }
\new Lyrics \with {\override VerticalAxisGroup #'minimum-Y-extent = #'(-1.2 . 1)}
\lyricsto m {aa aa aa aa aa aa aa aa aa }
>>
}
