Does this work for you?

%%%%
\version "2.19.81"

myfootnote = #(define-music-function (m) (ly:music?) #{
  \once \override Score.FootnoteItem.annotation-line = ##f
  \footnote \markup \huge { * } #'(0 . 5)
  \markup { \lower #0.8 { \super { * } }
    "The second time play the measure as " \raise #0.5
    \score {
      \new Staff \with {
        \remove "Time_signature_engraver"
        fontSize = #-3
        \override StaffSymbol.staff-space = #(magstep -3)
        \override StaffSymbol.thickness = #(magstep -3)
        firstClef = ##f
      }
      \fixed c' {f2 e4}
      \layout { indent = 0\cm ragged-last = ##t}
