Arizona intellectual property and social media attorney Ruth Carter explains why you can't register a copyright in a phrase. They are generally too short to qualify as an "original work of authorship."
To qualify for a copyright, you need two things: (1) an original work of authorship that is (2) fixed in a tangible medium. Writing down your phrase creates a tangible medium, but it is still not an original work of authorship.
Depending on how you use your phrase in commerce, it may qualify for trademark protection: http://bit.ly/1fFQCH4. That's why Paris Hilton could register a trademark for "That's hot," but not a copyright.
