5. That Johnny Truant song is one of my favourite titles ever.
And their band name is awesome, too.

Fall Out Boy have a lot of good song titles.

"Miranda, That Ghost Just Isn't Holy Anymore" by The Mars Volta
Not a long one, but "Capitalism Stole My Virginity" by The (International) Noise Conspiracy

8. Her Teeth Were Stained, But Her Heart was Pure
It's Hard to Kiss the Lips at Night that Chew Your Ass Out All Day Long

Billy Broke My Heart at Walgreens and I Cried All the Way to Sears

I Can't Get Over You, So Why Don't You Get Under Me?

If I Had My Life to Live Over, I'd Live Over a Delicatessen

If I Were In Your Shoes, I'd Walk Right Back To Me

All My Exes Live in Texas

Saddle Up the Stove, Ma, I'm Riding the Range Tonight

I Thought She Was Out Jogging, But She Was Running Around On Me

If the Phone Don't Ring, It's Me Not Calling You Up

All the Guys Who Turn Me On Turn Me Down

Get Your Tongue Outta My Mouth 'Cause I'm Kissing You Goodbye

(Pardon Me) I've Got Someone To Kill

Peel Me a Nanner

I Got In At 2 With A 10 And Woke Up At 10 With A 2

If The Jukebox Took Teardrops I'd Cry All Night Long

If Love Were Oil, I'd be a Quart Low
