<ctrl-c/copy line of text>, google: <ctrl-v> space "lyrics",
you can just highlight, right-click, and select "Search Google for." 12 clicks fewer!

xpost R0NG! i mean, it probably works ok sometimes, but i find you're more likely to get it right the first time if you type "lyrics" at the beginning or end of the phrase. though i suppose you could highlight, right click, search google, then if it doesn't answer correctly, *then* type "lyrics" at the end of the line.
that said i suppose google might have improved it's algorithms to the point where you no longer need to type "lyrics" it justknows that's what you want <cue creepy twilight zone music>

yeah, this. if there's a distinctive word in the sentence then lyrics are usually the first six answers
