http://localhost/lyrics/don't-turn-me-away/ is a custom post type.

my question is how to display http://localhost/lyrics/ as a page and not an archive?

my goal really is just for it be added to wp_nav_menu.

I have created a page named lyrics but it won't direct me there. Instead it brings me to archive.php. With that, the lyrics in menu, don't have the current-menu-item class.

Look for this in the code where you registered the lyrics post type:

'has_archive' => true,

Set 'has_archive' => false. That won't work right away, however. So you need to go in an "refresh" your permalinks. Just go to the permalinks options page, and hit the save button.

Also, you can add custom links to the menus in the menu editing screen. Just copy the localhost/lyrics/ url and past it into the custom link box. If you're going to be adding a lot of lyrics, you're better off creating a nice archive-lyrics.php and letting wordpress build the page for you. – chrisguitarguy Jun 10 '11 at 3:32
