About this application
Give Me Lyrics is a desktop application built for Linux systems that retrieves and displays song lyrics during audio playback. The program interfaces with local media players or active audio sources to identify currently playing tracks, then fetches corresponding text from online databases. Users can read synchronized or static text representations of songs directly within the application window while listening to music.
The software serves as a straightforward companion tool for desktop audio setups, eliminating the need to manually search for song text in web browsers. It runs exclusively on Linux and relies on active internet access to query lyric repositories. The utility centers entirely on text display and does not include audio playback controls, volume management, or music library organization features.
