lyrics

the spoken word of a song on the verge of being destroyed by modern 'music' used to have meaning is now used to show that people are lovesick, emo, or just annoying

stereotypical teenager1: i love the lyrics to taylor swift's new song
me: listen to some real music i don't wanna hear that annoying lovesick voice
stereotypical teenager2: yea you need to listen to eminem's not afraid!
me:...
*walks out being disgusted by how kids love songs without any meaning*

Just the poetry of a song. It's what some stupid people (especially most rap & emo fans) confuse with music.

*50 Cent "music" in the background

50 Cent fan: Dude, I love this guy's music!
Me: You mean just his lyrics! Any rhyme that has a bar-long bassline is only good to read. Dumbass...

lyrics

when good, the words of a song that make you realize you fucked up, or you hate that person, or love stinks ass.

when bad, the words that you love to scream while raving.

*drunk and/or high*
Person 1: "Dude, lets go rave, I love these lyrics."
Person 2: " These lyrics a totally parcheezi."

lyrics

The part of a song that nobody who gives a shit about music listens to.

Emo Kid: I like them, the lyrics are so deep
Me: What the hell kind of music do you listen to? I've been listening to Zeppelin and Zappa all morning I don't give two fucks about the words
My Friend: Yeah go read a poem
Emo Kid: Nobody understands my dark genius

lyrics

Rubbish; non-sensical, mendacious or exaggerated talk.
A person may also be described as lyrical if they regularly exhibit the afformentioned attributes.

Person 1: I won the men's single's wimbledon championship last year. (He did not)
Person 2: Mate, you're chatting lyrics.
