There's a limitation by musiXmatch for api. It only returns 30% of the song because of copyright.
Theres a image url below which shows it returned from the api.Read the <lyrics_copyright> tag.

Hi there, I've never dealt with VLC addons before so can you please tell me what I do with the lua file? Cheers.

You must copy the musixmatch.lua into the vlc extensions folder via terminal.
1. Open the Terminal
2. Get superuser status. Type: sudo su <enter>
3. Enter your password.
4. Access the lua file folder usind cd / commmand. Type: cd /pathway
5. Type ls <enter> to list folder's contents and find the lua file
6. Move the file to the extensions VLC folder. Type: mv musixmatch.lua /usr/lib/vlc/lua/extensions
7. Go to the destination folder and search for the lua flie. Type: cd /usr/lib/vlc/lua/extensions <enter>. Then type: ls <enter>
8. The musixmatch.lua must be there.
