I hate to say that \addlyrics is not intented to be used this way, either. i.e.

\new Staff {
    \relative g' {g1}
    \addlyrics { milk }
}

works as expected. The problem is that you can not put another pair
{music}\addlyrics{lyrics} on sequence, given the way in which
addlyrics works.  I strongly recommend to use named voice contexts
plus \lyricsto for any other than mostest simplest songs.
