See the 'If the Lyrics button is grayed out' section in:

See time-synced lyrics in Apple Music on your iPhone, iPod touch, or Android device - Apple Support

Either you’re playing a song that's not from the Apple Music catalog, or lyrics aren’t available for that song.

I have the same issue. The linked article says"Either you’re playing a song that's not from the Apple Music catalog, or lyrics aren’t available for that song." That's not true for all cases clearly because, the songs ARE in Apple Music and DO have lyrics. I can see them on my Mac, for the same songs.
