If you're serious about copyrighting your stuff, then send in the money and get it copyrighted. Don't fool around with any Mickey Mouse tricks that may or may not hold up in court. It's not worth it.

What he said. Getting a federal copyright is easy and pretty cheap, too.
Actually, you should do two registrations:
1 for the sound recording
1 for the songs you wrote (i.e., the lyrics, melody, etc)
Grand total will be $60 plus postage.
