Should the word national anthem be capitalized?

No, because usually the song has it's own name which doesn't contain the words "national anthem".

However, '"National Anthem" is a song recorded by American singer-songwriter Lana Del Rey for her second studio album, Born to Die (2012).' - from Wikipedia
