Hi Stjepan,

how about

\version "2.16.0"

\layout {
        \context {
                \Lyrics
                \override VerticalAxisGroup #'nonstaff-nonstaff-spacing =
                       #'((basic-distance . 0)
                          (minimum-distance . 5)  ;; <================
more lower space
                          (padding . 0.2)
                          (stretchability . 0))
        }
}

\relative c' {
        \repeat unfold 20 { c4 d e f }
        g1
}
\addlyrics {
        \repeat unfold 20 { foo -- foo -- foo -- foo }
        foo
}
\addlyrics {
        \repeat unfold 20 { bar -- bar -- bar -- bar }
        bar
}
\addlyrics {
        \repeat unfold 20 { bla -- bla -- bla -- bla }
        bla
}


Adjust minimum-distance to fit your needs.
