I see Taylor Swift (I'm not entirely sure who she is) has had a case of copyright against her dismissed since the judge has deemed the "phrase" in question to be "too banal" to be copyrighted.

Now is the time for NSC to be honest.

What utter tripe "at the end of the day" comes out of mouth that you wish you had the copyright to.

Whores keep whoring, junkies keep scoring

Primal Scream from 94 I believe, I wonder if they have a case?

I understand what you are saying.

I wish I had copyright on "just get rid of them"

“I turned round to him and said, and he turned round to me and said” (Makes me think why they were facing away from each other?.)

“I’m not gonna lie”

With respect ..

'Thank you for your kind understanding' and its numerous variants when I have not shown or feel this. Patronising in the extreme.
