Does this do what you want? I'm not sure what it is you want to do, so this
may be wide of the mark. The quotes make a phrase into one big syllable
which can then be placed by specifying its musical length. The notes are
spaced out to fit each phrase, but that can be controlled by changing the
musical length.

Subject: How to make note spacing disregard lyrics
What would be the setting to let notes be spaced without regard for the
corresponding lyrics? E.g. to let two eighth notes be on the same distance
from each other whether the first note has "mum" or "if". I've played
around with removing engravers and setting properties, but I haven't
found anything that works.
(And, yes: it's for the ancient chapter -- I'm not just wasting time here
:)
