Plenty of New Order tunes don't mention the title in the lyrics.

Most of Fall Out Boy's songs in all of their albums don't mention song title at all.

Some examples:

Our Lawyer Made Us Change The Name Of This Song, So We Wouldn't Get Sued

I Slept With Someone In Fall Out Boy, And All I Got Was This Stupid Song Written About Me

A Little Less Sixteen Candles, A Little More "Touch Me"

The Take Over, The Breaks Over

Headfirst Slide Into Cooperstown On A Bad Bet

This thread is dumb. It may as well be called "name songs".
As a guess, around 75% of all songs probably fit this criteria.

Way less than 75%. I think it depends on the artist.

I'm not sure if this counts, but i notice Nelly Furtado's 'say it right' is only mentioned once at the beginging 'say it right, say it all', it's not used in the chorous or anything.
