Does anyone know how to copy lyrics from Japanese lyrics sites?

I want to translate a song but I can find the lyrics only on Petitlyrics.com. Does anyone know how to copy from there?

I don't think you can do that. Petitlyrics and many other Japanese lyric site have an anti-copy future.

Accoun:
Firefox has an "inspect element" (I think that's what it's called, my browser isn't in english) option - probably other browsers as well. The lyrics are in <canvas> tag.

Alternatively it's in page source, but it's in unicode character codes so you'd have to convert it. Dunno if there are tools for that. Google seems to do it, but it gives an error when trying to do it all at once - you might do it piece by piece or whatever.

ChocoCats:
Or you can just use the google pencil/typing input for Japanese to write the characters. Writing requires knowledge of stoke order though.

Only the first half of the lyrics was in the <canvas> tag... :(
