Occurences of song titles in other songs' lyrics
Here's a fun (?) game that has come to my mind: look for PJ song titles (exact words) in lyrics of other PJ songs. Here's an example:
In Hiding contains the verses:
I shut and locked the front door
No way in or out
And No Way is a PJ song title, so there.
Let's see what others come up with, I don't think all songs can be matched that way (Elderly Woman Behind the Counter in a Small Town or Hey Foxymophandlemama, That's Me, anyone?
), but hopefully some will come up.

Unsealed, on a porch a letter sat ...

Out on the porch yeah but they don't wave

Small Town does have one:
"I swear I recognize your breath"
I remember before PJ played this song in 1998 at MSG, there was that big push for them to play Breath, and Ed said "here's a song with the word breath in it." But then they played Breath the next night...

I will walk...with my hands bound

I will walk...with my shadow flag
Into your garden
Garden of stone
Blood of Vs.

damn how did you guys forget the most obvious one...
"I suggest you step out...ON THE PORCH"0 -
Here's two more quite obvious ones:

Bus driving's harder on your head than on your feet."
From Oceans:

Glide me towards you"
I know you said it has to be the exact title, but this is only one letter out, so I think it deserves an honourable mention:

And fuck if you only hear what you wanna hear
