Lyrics sites are notorious for their shady practices.
Mostly numerous pop-up ads, but I imagine some PC malware is possible as well.
They exist completely outside the law as it is -- not a single one of them has permission to publish lyrics from the songwriters' reps -- so I guess they might as well break as many laws as they can while they're at it.
If you want, you can change your 'phishing' prefs in your FireFox prefs if you feel Google is going to do something untoward.
