When I needed lyrics, I used to just google the word lyrics plus any key words from the song title, artist, or the lyrics. It works OK, but the quality of the sites that I end up going to is pretty bad. Big flashing ads, pop-unders, poorly formatted lyrics, etc. Then I discovered LyricWiki.org.
The format is clean, there are no ads, and it's quite comprehensive. I liked it so much that I even contributed.
After I got the new Vertical Horizon album--Burning the Days--I headed over to LyricWiki to see if they had all the songs there. They did, but only for the leaked version. There are three new songs on the album that didn't appear on the leaked version. So while I was listening to the album, I went ahead and transcribed them. Now the whole album is covered.
I never got much into editing Wikipedia, but with LyricsWiki, I feel more of a draw, like I'm promoting the songs and artists I like the most. I even added a Firefox search bookmark for it:

Next, maybe I'll head over to TabWiki and help them out...
