: Re: Can I use a phrase from song lyrics as the title of my book? Are the lyrics "signed, sealed, and delivered" copyrighted? I want to use these words as part of the title of a book to be published

"Signed, sealed, and delivered" is a standard phrase used in everyday life. As such, it cannot be copyrighted.

For something to be copyrighted, it needs to be an original expression of an idea, as opposed to an idea itself. This phrase is too "standard" (and too short) to qualify.
