I've had a similar experience. A very diligent M-Tx user invented a
new name (sop1,sop2,sop3,...) each time he used \setlyrics, and had
only one line of lyrics in each such \setlyrics. TeX capacity was
exceeded in quite a short song.
The solution was to re-use the names. When the lyrics in \setlyrics{sop1}
are exhausted, there is no need to say \setlyrics{sop2} for the next
batch, just use \setlyrics{sop1} again.
Hope this helps.
