Dr., Ms., Mr., etc. These are examples of honorifics.

Here's the ones I can think of right now:
Ben Harper - Excuse Me, Mr.
Buffalo Springfield - Mr. Soul
The Byrds - Mr. Tambourine Man
Cypress Hill - Dr. Greenthumb
Dewey Cox - Dear Mr. President
GNR - Mr. Brownstone
The Killers - Mr. Brightside

Motley Crüe - Dr. Feelgood
NIN - Mr. Self Destruct
Ozzy Osbourne - Mr. Crowley
Pixies - Mr. Grieves
Styx - Mr. Roboto
Simon & Garfunkel - Mrs. Robinson
Surprisingly the majority of these quality songs.
