You speak and make time stand still
And each time you walk right on by

well thhat could happen. heres how to copy right it just write it out and put it in a leeter and send it to your self but when it gets there dont open it. and if someone ever steals it you could take them to court and you would win because theres proof that your wrote it before they had a chance to steal it

Do a poor mans copyright.
Write it-get it notorized(only a few bucks)
Then mail it to yourself and don't open it.

The "poor-mans copywrite" as it were, is no longer legally binding as of 2 or 3 years ago, when new copywrite laws went into effect..

You need to file a federal copywrite to protect yourself legally, its the only way.
