I'm not sure where they're stored, but I've used MediaMonkey and other programs to add lyrics to most of my library. That avoids the licensing issue (or at least shifts it to the user).
The rub with this proposal is that everything moOde knows about a track's metadata comes from the MPD input plugins. Since MPD doesn't include lyrics (either synchronized or unsynchronized) in its list of suported metadata, moOde would have to include its own metadata parser for every markup scheme (ID3v2, Vorbis Comment, etc). Not impossible, but a fair amount of grunt work.
My music collection is at least 2/3 jazz and classical music. For me lyrics are not a high priority. That's just me.
