Hi Marcus,

> There must be a better way to do this, though.

Not sure about "better", but here are a couple options:

\version "2.11.23"

theMusic =
{
        c''^\markup { \italic "Variation second." }
	c''^\markup { \translate #(cons 0 1) { \hspace #0 \italic "Variation  
second." } }
        c''^\markup { \raise #1 { \hspace #0 \italic "Variation second." } }
}

\score
{
        \theMusic
}

Hope this helps!
Kieren.
