Apple Music lyrics

For some reason, song lyrics are not appearing when I play songs in Apple Music. Is this something new? Any idea how to correct this? I have checked settings but I don’t see an option to correct this.

thanks

Not all songs will have them.

There’s two settings for lyrics you can try making sure they’re on:

The Now playing of the song; underneath the shuffle and repeat buttons- “Show” Or “Hide”
The Now playing of the song; the three dots; scroll to the bottom of the list, Tap Lyrics to display the lyrics.

otherwise, close the music app and restart your device
