* When performing the song "My Home Town," [[Tom Lehrer]] always omits a line by saying something to the effect of "we're recording tonight, so I'll have to leave this line out." (The published sheet music just calls for whistling, and in the studio version he says "Shall I? No, maybe better not.") He has subsequently admitted that he never came up with a satisfactory rhyme, and found the implication that he intended to say something so unspeakably racy it had to be censored much funnier.
* In [[Paul Simon]]'s "Me and Julio Down by the Schoolyard," "what the mama saw / it was against the law," but what she saw is never specified. [
* Lit's breakout single "[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sc5iTNVEOAg My Own Worst Enemy]" revolves around a moderate one. There was a fight between the singer and his girlfriend, but a lot of specifics are left to the listener's imagination.

* The origin of Maroon 5's name, which according to most reports is "a secret known only to the 5 of them and [[Billy Joel]]" (though the [[Other Wiki]] hints it to be a girl the band members had a "[[Reverse Harem|collective crush]]" on).
* Not the most famous example, by any stretch, but the nature of this troper's co-worker's band became this, when they finally chose a name, settling on "The Monday After"
* In a sense: [[Carpenters|Richard Carpenter]] said he came up with the beginning lyrics and the melody for "Goodbye to Love" after watching a [[Bing Crosby]] movie in which Crosby's character was a songwriter whose greatest hit, often spoken about but never actually played in the movie, was titled "Goodbye to Love."
