It might help to mention that Americans often refer to any piece of music (with or without lyrics) as a "song".
But why? What if you want to refer to a song and the word for song no longer means song?
I haven't yet encountered a situation where using the word "song" to refer to a piece of music (rather than just those pieces of music with lyrics) resulted in an unresolvable ambiguity.
