Subject: printing actual "~" character in lyrics?


I know it's an odd request, but what if I actually want 
the ~ character to print in lyrics? None of these work:

"~"
'~'
\~
#"~"
##\~
#(string #\~)

Thanks.

============================================

Don't think I really like it as a solution, but

\markup { \char #126 }

does actually work.
