Damn, the Kinks sure wrote a lot of good songs with names in the titles. Please allow me to add Monica, Wicked Annabella, and of course, Lola to the list.
Elvis Costello's Allison (sp?) ought to be mentioned, for the record.
Wang Dang Sweet Poontang. I know it's slang, but I like it.

Except wasn't it really called "My Aim is True" or was that just the album name?
Great song, either way.
And "Lola" another really good one.
I ruined a friend's interpretation when I explained "Lola". He just had the hots for the office Lola who had "improvements".
