Default Re: LYRIC or LYRICS (singular or plural)
Thanks for your prompt reply, Bianca. I'm sorry I don't quite understand why you said: "heavy metal thunder" is referred to as a lyric poem (a song) . "heavy metal thunder" is the WORDS CONTAINED in the song "Born to Be Wild"! Anyway, I was wondering if there is any difference between the following expressions:

(1) The song contains the lyric "heavy metal thunder".
(2) The song contains the lyrics "heavy metal thunder".

Which one is correct? Or both are correct?
