Q: Why no lyrics in iOS 10 Music app?
Ok, iOS 10 is officially out, and NONE of my tracks (which ALL have lyrics, previously displayed in iOS 9) are displaying lyrics in the Music app.
... and I noticed something new in iTunes 12.5.1.21 ... when I look at a track's Lyrics tab in the info pane, there is a checkbox in the lower left for "Custom Lyrics":
iPhone 6s Plus, iOS 10

So, this solved the problem for me - I synced my phone (via USB to an encrypted local backup on iTunes, the way any civilized person does), and clicked on the device button to view my iPhone's sync settings. In the Music tab, I unselected Sync Music, then clicked Apply, which synced the phone again removing all the tracks from my phone. I then checked the Sync Music box and re-synced the phone so the tracks were completely reloaded onto the device. Lyrics were back!
