Grab Lyrics from iTunes LP? No.

If you are about to email me with something along these lines: Hey! Is it possible to get the lyrics from an iTunes LP and put them in the individual tracks' lyrics tag? That'd be great!

The lyrics you see displayed in an iTunes LP are .png image files and the lyrics cannot be scraped as text.
