I guess having a 120Hz monitor is a must in order to even display it :P

You don't have to make an account with Facebook and even if you did, you can turn sharing off in the options menu.

You can always view the lyrics with the apps inside Spotify. It appears that Spotify is merging the highest rated lyric app (musiXmatch) into the desktop app so, at least for me, it doesn't really make a difference. To install apps in Spotify, go to "App Finder" and under "Top Apps", you'll see that musiXmatch is the highest rated app, mainly because it offers lyrics. Click on it, and on the top right, you'll be able to add it to Spotify.
