Here is how I got it installed. I downloaded it from here. Once downloaded I used Gdebi to install it. If you don't have Gdebi installed, just press Ctrl+Alt+T on your keyboard to open Terminal. When it opens, run the command(s) below:

sudo apt-get install gdebi

Once installed, just open the file with it, and click install. See images below.

  • GDebi is no longer needed. The Software Centre handles individual package files just fine.

The reason is that on http://ppa.launchpad.net/osd-lyrics/ppa/ubuntu/dists/ there is no trusty existed. That means the owner doesn`t update the OSD for trusty. but you can edot the sourselist to change "trusty" to quantal which is the newest version that OSD supported.
