Birdhouse in Your Soul was on the radio the other day and I thought of this thread. Are there any other songs that reference Jason and the Argonauts?

As played by Marc Riley on 6Music this evening (which means he must have had a pre-release version come his way as Riley is currently recording his show two weeks ahead of it being broadcast and it appears the track was only made public today), Bill Callahan's Pigeons includes "plenipotentiary". My guess is that that is a first ever usage...

Genuflecting - NO! 10 other results
Penitent - NO! 54 other results
Monologuing - YES! it's unique, but is it a real word?
Kalashnikoving - YES! it's unique, but not a real word
Trilobite - NO! 11 other results (including several as a song title)
Perps - MAYBE! the site shows 64 other results but most seem to be perp singular (which is also appearing in the results) rather then plural

Walt will be delighted to discover that, according to the reference site, Everything Everything's recent single "Arch Enemy" is the only song that mentions "fatberg". And is probably also the only popular (album just went in at number 5 on the UK charts) song about one. Let alone a sentient one.

In what would be a hugely niche subset of this thread, my current hometown of Banstead doesn't appear in any song lyrics, including in the song Banstead by Atomic Rooster.
So, words that appear once in song titles but never in song lyrics anyone?
