  • Discounting the fact that lyric actually means "the words of a song," I would just say song lyrics.

"The lyrics of a song" is a common way to say it. Also common are "the lyrics to (song name)", "a song's lyrics", "The lyrics in a song", or "the lyrics for (song name)", though the last two are less common.
