I can only speak for the UK, but here you automatically get copyright on 
your own work. All you have to do is to have proof that you wrote it earlier 
than anyone who might claim copyright to your work, so if you stick a cd in 
a tamper-proof envelope, send it to yourself registered or recorded 
delivery, preferably with the date stamp across the seal, then you have 
proof that you had the song written by that date. Nobody else will be able 
to show that they had the song any earlier, and that is sufficient for 
copyright in the UK. 

Hope that helps
