Legale or Not

You'll need permission from the copyright holder to reproduce the lyrics. They'll likely want you to pay a licensing fee for that if they are willing to do it at all.

 

Let's say that someone reached in to your pocket and grabbed something that you had worked hard for...do you think that would be legal? Do you think person should need permission before doing so?

 

I tried such an argument with Uncle Sammy, and he told me to scram and I'd better pay up.
He then reached into BOTH of my pockets and emptied them.

 

It's good to be the king.

 

And then handed you back $1200 of your money and called it a stimulus.

 

Which his "bagmen" will eagerly relieve me of come next April, plus interest, fees, shipping, handling, graft, corruption, and extras.

 

No. Where the government printed the money and handed it out as stimulus, adding to the debt. This money didn't come out of your pocket...at least not yet. It'll be the taxpayers who are around when (if ever) we start to pay down the debt that will pay for it.

 

Only if you have a license from the owner of the copyright in the song.

That doesn't matter if you don't have a copyright license.
