Song Titles unrelated to song lyrics

Theme for an imaginary western - Jack Bruce
Theme from Shaft - Isaac Hayes
Girlwatcher's theme - Andy Williams ?
Lara's theme - Dr. Zhivago soundtrack

i think any number of Bob Dylan tunes qualify; here'a a handful that come to mind; Dylan devotees can do much better i'm sure.

Ballad of a thin man
Subterranean homesick blues
Positively 4th street
Live minus zero/no limit
My back pages
She belongs to me
Rainy day women #12 and 35

Hi Yit

I'd forgotten about 'theme'. At least Shaft does have the lyric 'shaft'.

Dylan does look to be the king of this - no surprise I guess.
Although I've got two more Bowie tracks:
Width of a circle
&

Train in vain - Clash
and, for a massive change of pace
Annie's Song - John Denver

Epistle to Dippy
The Fat Angel
Celeste

Except the word Kashmir does eventually make an appearance - man I love that track.

Bizarre Love Triangle - New Order (and Frente)

He's baaaack!

And he is a Zep guy....

Had to listen to the song again, forgot about that.

The Ubiquitous Mr Lovegrove ~ Dead Can Dance

possibly one of the strangest song titles out there, then again they are Australian :wink:

I love that song too!!!

You must have forgotten about this Pink Floyd song from Ummagumma:

"Several Species of Small Furry Animals Gathered Together in a Cave and Grooving with a Pict"

Legend of a Cowgirl - Imani Coppola

Not so much a song title as a description of the noise you hear.

What Godzilla Said To God When His Name Wasn't Found In The Book Of Life - American Music Club

Smut - Skyhooks


Slip into a cinema and give yourself a treat
Better take a raincoat could be sticky on the seat
Open up you Twisties and open up your fly
Pictures start to flicker as your hand moves down your thigh

If your mother knew what you were doing
She'd probably hang her head and cry
And if she thought that you were whipping the dripping
She'd give you a belt, extract all the teeth of your fly

Munchy Munchy Twisties the shorts are such a drag
Make a little opening in the other end of your bag
Now put your Twisties right down there in your lap
No-one ever guesses whatsit's in the pack

If your mother knew what you were doing...etc.

Ooh la la la la la la la la...etc.

Better get a grip on yourself
You better pull yourself together..

Picture's almost over but still your not quite there
John Wayne pulls his gun out and you wish he'd some to spare
Then they turn the lights on and people start to stare
You find you've got a boot full and your coat's stuck to the chair

If your mother knew what you were doing...etc.

Ooh la la la la la la la la...etc.
