Do you have LYRICS tags in your music files ?

If so, I think you should be able to hold your finger down on a track
for a while, so it opens the context menu, and then select to show the
lyrics. The context menu can also be accessed with a IR remote by
hitting +/More button. I haven't tried this myself, so this option
might be missing on the Squeezebox Touch, but if it exists you will
reach them through the context menu opened for a track.

There is currently no way to get the Touch to automatically display the
lyrics for the currently playing track without user interaction.

If you have a iPad you can install iPeng for iPad on it and that app
has an option to show the lyrics for the currently playing track on the
iPad screen.

All solutions when attaching a drive directly to the Touch require
LYRICS tags in the music files. If you would be running a Squeezebox
Server on a computer, you would be able to use the third party Song
Info + Song Lyrics plugin to get them to retrieve Lyrics from the
online 'musiXmatch' (http://musixmatch.com) service, but neither that
will currently allow to to get automatically updated lyrics on the
Squeezebox Touch screen without user interaction.
