The short answer is you may format the lyrics any way that pleases you.

The long answer is: don't do it at all!

Permissions for the use of song lyrics are extremely hard to get (Why would the Eurythmics want to associate themselves with you?).

If you obtain permission: the first thing to do is to refinance you house.

For one line of “Jumpin’ Jack Flash”: £500

For one line of Oasis’s “Wonderwall”: £535

For one line of “When I’m Sixty-four”: £735.

For two lines of “I Shot the Sheriff” £1,000.

Note: that's pounds-sterling no US dollars!
