This is a topic over at AnandTech and I thought it was pretty clever. Let's post some songs that are identifiable by one and only one lyric that doesn't[/contain] the title of the song. I'll start with a super easy one:
"There's a lady who's sure all that glitters is gold"
Edit: We can make this trivia style or just have a free for all. There's lots of songs to go around.

I have no idea what the name of the song is. It could be called the Oscar Mayer theme for all I know.

It's probably the name of the song, but I always loved the skit from Taxi where they are from New York, but can't remember the words to New York, New York. They would sing "New York, New York..da da, yada, da da New York, New York"

How about most of the uniformed services songs? I don't even know the words to the Air Force song, but everyone knows "Off we go, into the wild blue yonder....."

When we moved from Nebraska, my dad had one of those little keychains that played music. He had a moving allowance that covered four days of travel so we took all four days to drive. Every day when we started, he turned on the walkie talkies we used to communicate (this was before cell phones were as prevalent as they are now) and played the Air Force song. So funny.

off we go into the wild blue yonder climbing high into the sun here they come, zooming to meet our thunder at em boys give er the gun! down we dive, spouting our flames from under off with one hell of a roar we'll live in fame or go down in flame, hey! nothing'll stop the US Air Force
and there's three more verses I also had to memorize while at OTS but I'll spare you:)
...reluctantly crouched at the starting line, engines pumping and thumping in time...
