    Actually I did the web-scraping with Python and analyzed the lyrics with R because Iโ€™m a bit more confident with it. If youโ€™re interested I have uploaded the code I wrote for the web-scraping here. Feel absolutely free to use it!

    this, I wanted to make a little utility for getting lyrics for whatever song is currently playing on spotify[1] and ran into the issue for getting the song name without using the API since that's just inconvenient for the end user. The most popular such project does go that way though.[2]

    I ended up writing a small library that does that locally cross-platform by using the metadata from the app.[3] The approach is probably not as robust as the API, but much faster and works well.

    A quick search lands on the LyricsGenius wrapper, and one that i personally used before is the Spotipy wrapper. Incorporate those in your project, start small by breaking it up into easy to achieve things like creating a function that searches on Genius and gives you something back etc.
