If you'd done a

use Data::Dumper;
die Dumper($content);
[download]

You'd see this:

<SCRIPT>
if(self==top)top.location.replace("/?"+document.location)
</SCRIPT>
[download]

Got it? :-)

So this would work:

#!/usr/bin/perl

use warnings;
use strict;

use CGI qw/:standard/;
use CGI::Carp qw(fatalsToBrowser);

my $url = "http://www.letssingit.com/frame_menu.html";
my $query = "avril";


use WWW::Mechanize;
my $mech = WWW::Mechanize->new(agent=>"wonderbot");
$mech->get($url);

 print header,start_html("lyrics grabber");

$mech->submit_form(
        form_name => 'search',
        fields    => {
        s => $query,
        l => 'song',  # or 'artist' or 'album' or 'lyrics'.
        },
);
my $content = $mech->content;
$content =~ s/self==top//;

print $content;

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
