Names -> Song Titles Not Used as Lyrics -> F

Some songs have titles that aren't used in the lyrics, and end up becoming better known for their lyrics than their title. Bob Dylan's "Rainy Day Women #12 & 35" is better known for the refrain "Everybody must get stoned" than it is for the title.

Comments & Submittor Name
Faith No More Epic What...is...it? Video is famous for the "fish out of water" scene at the end. - Bud Hoffman
Fall Out Boy Our Lawyer Made Us Change The Name Of This Song So We Wouldn't Get Sued Just looked at the lyrics for this one; apparently, it repeats the line "we're all liars" a lot. Fall Out Boy has a habit of coming up with ridiculously long titles for their songs. I think next to none of 'em are actually mentioned in the songs, though. - Jonathan S.
Fall Out Boy Sophomore Slump Or Comeback of the Year The best part of "believe" is the "lie" - Lizzie
Fall Out Boy Nobody Puts Baby in the Corner And I keep my jealousy close, 'Cause it's all mine. And if you say this makes you happy, Then i'm not the only one lying. - Katy
Fall Out Boy Champagne For My Real Friends, Real Pain For My Sham Friends Strike us like matches, cause everyone deserves the flames We only do it for the scars and stories, not the fame - Katy
Fatboy Slim The Rockafeller Skank Right about now, the funk soul brother. Check it out now, the funk soul brother. - Brian Kelly
Finger Eleven Paralyzer Close, but... The singer mentions that he's not "paralyzed", but it is assumed that the person he is singing about is the "paralyzer". Thus, no mention in the song. - rocky
Five For Fighting Superman (It's Not Easy) Of all the songs that have "Superman" in the title, this is the only song that doesn't contain that word anywhere in the lyrics. - MOR
A Flock Of Seagulls Space Age Love Song I saw your eyes,
And you made me smile;
For a little while
I was falling in love. - British Bullcrap
Forever the Sickest Kids I Don't Know About You, But I Came to Dance Not really said anywhere, the better title would be the most repeated line "I'm a sucker for lovers". - Alex
The Format The First Single "So let’s make a list of who we need
It’s not much, if anything
Make a list of who we need
And we’ll throw it away
‘Cause we don’t need anyone." - Katy
The Format I'm Ready, I Am I'm trying to find truth in words, in rhymes, and notes
In all the things I wish I wrote 'cause
I feel like I've been losing you - Katy
Four Seasons Opus #17 Is this the call-and-response song to the Toy's 'Lovers Concerto'? - Paul Warren
Fratellis Baby Fratelli Alright, everybody says she's alright. - Time Machine
Fratellis Whistle For The Choir The closest you'll get to this title appearing in the lyrics is the whistling solo in the middle of the song! - Time Machine
Fully Down Descent, Rebellion, And All Around Hell Raising I killed for your love, My guilt and ignorance, - Katy
