Automatic lyric colouring

[jmuzic]

I'm trying to put together an engraver for educational purposes, with
noteheads coloured according to a particular scheme, and lyrics following
this colouring.

I've used the snippet for notehead colouring successfully (
http://lsr.di.unimi.it/LSR/Snippet?id=572
<http://lsr.di.unimi.it/LSR/Snippet?id=572>  ), using "\override
NoteHead.color = #color-notehead", but have no idea how to get the lyrics to
follow the same colour scheme without changing each word individually. I
took a punt but using "override LyricText.color = #color-notehead" didn't
work.

Anyone got any clues to whether my idea is possible and if so how?

Thanks
