Here is a partial list of albums with "title tracks" that contain the album's title in their lyrics but do not have the same title as the album:
U2's "All That You Can't Leave Behind". Title track (TT) = "Walk On" (The only baggage you can bring/Is all that you can't leave behind)
Everclear's "Sparkle and Fade". TT = "Summerland"
(Everything we want to be
We could get lost in the Fall
Glimmer Sparkle and Fade
The Sparkle and Fade)
Modest Mouse's "Good News for People Who Love Bad News" = "Bury Me With It"
(Good news for people who love bad news.
We've lost the plot and we just can't choose.
We are hummingbirds who are just not willing to move.
And there's good news for people who love bad news.)
The Pixies' "Doolittle". TT = Mr. Grieves ("Pray for the man in the middle/The one who talks like Doolittle")
The Shins' "Chutes too Narrow". TT = Young Pilgrims ("I fell into a winter slide/And ended up the kind of kid who goes down/Chutes too narrow/Just eking out my measly pipes")
Party of One's "Caught the Blast". TT = Baghdad Boogie ("Caught the blast from 30 feet away/85 degrees in the shade")
The Russian Futurists's "The Weight's On The Wheels". TT = Hoeing Weeds Sowing Seeds ("And that great weight that you carry/From your born-day 'til you're buried/Well, now that weight's on the wheels"
