Supermarket slogans eh?

Please correct me if i'm wrong, or not entirely accurate, but ....

Once Upon a Time there was a small supermarket chain trading by the name of Lion Stores (*) which had the slogan "The Customer is King."

I repeat "The CUSTOMER is KING."

Eventually becoming part of Hillards Supermarkets PLC, which in 1987, got taken over by ......

Tesco's.

Has anyone yet copyrighted "The customer is now a cash cow"?

(*) yep, complete with a pair of stone Lion figurines outside their Head Office.
