Name a good song where the song title is not mentioned in the song....
 
I was thinking:

Nirvana - Smells Like Teen Spirit

That's really all I could think of off the top of my head. I was thinking 'Kashmir' by Zeppelin, but even that's mentioned in the song once. What other good ones are there? This might seem like a pointless exercise, but one of my friends is compiling a list of these, so I need some good examples.

The difficult thing about posts like yours is I'm not sure if you deliberately put that song in your post because I specifically mentioned that in my OP, and you're trying to be funny, or if you never read the OP at all.

Dream Theater - A Change of Seasons
ELP - Tarkus
Genesis - The Musical Box

In fact, when I think of my favorite songs, most of their lyrics don't mention the song title. Go figure.

One that immediately came to mind was Tool's Ænema. Looking through their entire catalog, I found it somewhat interesting that well over 50% of their songs fall into this category.

Some of you are either trying to be funny or you are just retards. How hard is it to double-check the lyrics via google before posting?
