Sing to the lyrics of songs in your iTunes
Sing That iTune! is one of the best lyric fetching tools you will find on Mac. It's clean, fetches the lyrics automatically for you and interacts well with iTunes.
Having it as widget means it is immediately available. You will have to be running iTunes to make it work though. You can either search for the lyrics of a song at the back of the widget, by typing the name of the song or of the artist, or just start any song in iTunes. Sing That iTune! can be a little erratic, and you might find it freezes up or won't display lyrics. However this isn't as frequent as you'd think.
I like how Sing That iTune! has links to YouTube and Google so you can look for videos and extra information on a song or artist. You'll find you can also search for album artwork, which is nice to have since you need an Apple account to do this in iTunes.
Sing That iTune! also lets you save the lyrics of a success with the music file. If you want them separate you can select a folder to place them into.
Sing That iTune! is a clean little widget that will search for and display lyrics to your iTunes tracks.

For just having your lyrics always in front and available it's ok.
it was my companion for years but with no update any more becomes less usable. It's great when work with iTunes to have always the lyrics of the songs in front of you something I use very often. BUT you have to first add lyrics manually to your tracks as I did manually and with the help of other apps.
This widget is good because its always available and does what it says, shows lyrics… ;)
Pros:
simple
always available
Cons:
lack of updates
some char sets confuse it More

Great widget but it didn't retrieve lyrics for me..
This widget retrieved album artwork and links to YouTube instantly. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to get it to bring up the song lyrics. The "extra" features were so cool that I have decided to keep the widget installed. I won't be able to use it the way I wanted to though.
Pros:
Great "extras" and interface.
Cons:
Doesn't seem to retrieve song lyrics. More

Well, this and the 10 others lyric apps I've didn't work, they simply don't find anything... and that's it, it's frustrating, if someone could help me i'd appreciate. Thanks. More

The Best for Lyrics.
Sing that iTune was one of the first widgets I used, but over time it got wonky. I searched in vain for it with no luck, but along comes Softonic to save the day...and with the latest version. Best $2.99 I've spent in a while. I have an updated program that I love, lyrics downloaded automatically into my iPod and a new website to search for cool software. It's a good day!
Pros:
Quick lyrics, easy integration of lyrics and artwork into iTunes and iPod.
Cons:
Easy software updating More
