If you are trying to copywrite lyrics or band names, music whatever, heres a little trick that I heard will hold up in court if you ever need to.
1. Put whatever you want copywritten in an envelope, go down to the post office and send it to yourself as a certified letter. They will seal it and stamp it with their "official Post Office" stamp. When you receive it dont open it, just sign for it. Theres the proof you need that you wrote these lyrics/music whatever. The envelope will be dated and if anybody tries to claim rights to the content after the date stamped, theyre screwed.
