Funny how difficult it was to make lyrics of an entire album available back before the internet when it had to be printed on paper. Today they could just make a rule that lyrics had to be provided to a website where parents could check them out, or embedded into the mp3 of the songs.

I don't understand, vinyls do include lyrics on some albums(I don't have a very extensive collection so I don't know if it was a standard practice in the 50s-70's) but most of the vinyls I own are more modern reprints. Does this mean lyrics were never printed until this hearing?
