As long as you don't reproduce the lyrics on the image or in the text
file,
there should be no problem.  Just say "this image is inspired by the
song "..."".
"the song is about ..."; the viewer just have, *if he wants to*, to look
for
a lyrics website to get the full thing.
I could do an image of a strawberry field and say it was inspired by 
"Strawberry Fields Forever" without a problem.  Anyway, art (or attempt
to)
can't exist without inspiration/references/...

Now, if your image really NEEDS to have the full lyrics in, you're in
trouble...

Fabien.
