If Weird Al wants to take "Blue Bayou," a song composed by Roy Orbison, and replace only Orbison's lyrics and publish it under the name "Blue by You," a song about domestic violence, which of the following is true? Assume that all are Canadian citizens governed by Canadian law. Read each separately.
◦ Orbison's legal representative could not sue because Roy Orbison died and thus so did his copyright.
◦ Orbison's legal representative could not sue if Weird Al's lyrics were different, because the song takes on a whole new meaning.
◦ Weird Al could get no protection for his original lyrics unless he sent a copy of his lyrics to the Copyright Office along with his application for copyright.
◦ Weird Al could get protection for his original lyrics even if they were unpublished.
◦ If, before his death, Orbison has signed a licence agreement with Weird Al, allowing him to use the music, there could be no lawsuit against Weird Al no matter how offensive the lyrics turned out to be.
