I don't know if we've had this one before but I thought it might be fun. How many songs have titles that are not in the lyrics? Let's find out! And I don't mean instrumentals

OK, I'll go first...

Ballad Of A Thin Man: Dylan (a/k/a: you know something’s happening but you don’t know what it is, do you Mr. Jones).

Come to think of it, I bet most of Dylan’s song titles never found their way into his lyrics.
