forcing <CR> in lyrics - YellowYeti - 2012-08-17

I have found some songs where the lyrics have been entered in databases without any carriage returns:

e.g. 'Shonen Knife Planet' on Lyricstime

http://www.lyricstime.com/shonen-knife-shonen-knife-planet-lyrics.html

These display as a single scrolling line of text within XBMC (Eden with Metropolis skin, but I believe applies to all)

Is there any way to force a carriage return on, say, first whitespace after N characters in a line?

It wouldn't be perfect, but without correcting every lyric in every database, it would at least make it usable?
