Write up the lyrics in the usual poetic style (with line breaks and also stanza breaks). Insert in the text by starting a new paragraph then indenting the lyrics on both ends. In a published book you might italicize or change the font, but don't worry about that in your copy.

If the lyrics are just a short line, you can insert it directly into your text and use quote marks around it. Or italicize.
