I have used fragments like you but more or less always ended up with
lilypondfile instead, the fragment grows and it it easier to test it as
a seperate file.

use e.g. \markup\bold, see Text marup.

Remove the fragment option and add \sore { ... \layout { } }.

Under 14.6 Music fragment options, it do tell you that fragment let you
enter music without entering \score, \layout, etc.
Then, if you need \layout, don't use fragemnt. But one has to figure
out that by oneself.
Try this:
\version "2.10.1"
#(set-global-staff-size 14)
\score {
\new Staff {
\time 12/8
\partial 8
\relative g' {
g8 g4 g8 g4 g8 g4 g8 g8 g8 g8 g4 g8 g4 g8 g4
}
}
\addlyrics{
Some \markup\bold TIME She \markup\bold USED to \markup\bold PUT
me \markup\bold THROUGH the re -- \markup\bold SPON -- se sof the
\markup\bold MASS
}
\layout {
raggedright = ##t
indent = 0.0\mm
\context {
\Staff
\remove Staff_symbol_engraver
\remove Clef_engraver
}
}
}
