LyricSearcher for Alice

You know a lyric, you want to find the song, you use the lyric searcher, you find the song!

What?

This is a python application that enables you to use the GeniusLyrics API to find songs by lyric. Run the application, enter the lyric you want to search for, and it will return a list of songs containing that lyric.

Yeah, me neither buddy :)

You can get one here!

It's free and painless(-ish).

I'm not suppos'ta, they'll get mad at me :(

But I'll give you a little hint :)

Here's one of the letters in my access token: 'z'

Hmmm....

Maybe your lyrics are wrong or maybe there's a bug :( Try different lyrics and let me know if the issues persist.

Why?

Alice asked for it :)
