To make up for posting things that don't require or deserve comments :-( how about AN LIST of songs whose title is, in isolation, the opposite of what it's used for in the song. The Pet Shop Boys do this in a very cheap way with the addition of "Not"/negatives:

it's just a boy or a girl, its not "The End of the World"
we were never "Being Boring"

(both from the same album, hmm)

First person to post the song written down on the back of my hand here gets double points.

MAN I can't believe Myleene was bitch-slapped!

"her ordeal began when a gang of youths spotted her at a newsagent's and began singing her hit, Pure And Simple - adding the lyrics 'I am going to kill you'. One girl followed her into the shop, asking who she was. When the star came out, another threw chips at her.

The 27-year old was then pushed to the ground as the gang stood around laughin. One shouted: 'Shall I bitch slap her?' - a reference to taking pictures with mobile phones after attacking someone. The attack happened on Tuesday afternoon in Bermondsey, South London.

SEE THIS IS WHY SOWF OVVA RIVVA = BAD

Remember when Robbie Williams released "Strong", and Gary Barlow tried to cleverly outdo him by releasing a song called "Stronger" as his next single? He then tried to laugh it off by pointing out that Robbie's one was mistitled in the first place, being as it was about being weak, and dancing like his dad.

there's this Dom+Roland track that's got the vocal loop "punish me". It's titled 'Can't punish me' though. Heh.
