I downloaded a lyric search script, and it works well for searching google.

I looked at the code, and it seems that the URL it appends the search to is "http://www.google.com/search?q=lyrics+" Not just "google.com"

Where do they get that URL from? If I type something in the search field, I get a slightly different URL.

I get [http://www.google.ca/search?hl=en&safe=off&q=lyrics&btnG=Search&meta=]


The reason I'm asking is I want to make some copies of the script to search lyric sites. Specifically:

Lyric Wiki and
Sing 365

Those seem to be the best lyric sites I've seen so far, but what URL do I add to the script? How Can I find this for future reference?
 
alright I seem to have it, but with lyric wiki, it often says no results found, but the info is on the site. I find it by searching for just the artist, and navigating to the song.

I guess it's just a glitch or something.
