The Jackson 5’s “I Want You Back” almost qualifies. It’s only during the fade-out that Michael shouts “I want you back!” (Does it count as lyrics if it’s not sung?)
“Revival” by the Allman Brothers (“People can you feel it/Love is everywhere”)
“Fugue for Tinhorns” from Guys and Dolls (“I got the horse right here, his name is Paul Revere…”)
I guess I can add an entry to the “things you didn’t notice the first million times” thread. You are right that “I want you back” is sung as part of the backing vocals, but I swear I’ve never noticed that before.
The entire album “A Fever You Can’t Sweat Out” by Panic! At the Disco.
Additional trivia - the song names are also taken from other sources.

I Write Sins Not Tragedies - a quote from Coupland’s “Shampoo Planet”
London Beckoned Songs About Money Written by Machines - a quote from Coupland’s “Shampoo Planet”
Lying Is the Most Fun a Girl Can Have Without Taking Her Clothes Off - a quote from the movie Closer
I Constantly Thank God for Esteban - A quote from The Life Aquatic
Build God, Then We’ll Talk - a quote from Palahniuk’s “Choke”
I am the Sea - Daltrey sings four song titles, but not this one! The Punk Meets the Godfather (GGGGG-g-g-g-g generation.) That bit is really subtle - almost unaudible. I dunno what Peter Townhend is singing through. Perhaps that’s a good candidate for the thread about songs that mention other songs. But damn, I really want to hear that song played loud. Love Entwistles bass. The whole album. The Dirty Jobs
**Helpless Dancer **(Daltrey sings those words in the opening song - along with The Real Me, Bell Boy and Love Reign O’er me - but those songs do include the title) Drowned
I have left out another Pink Floyd song: High Hopes.
I have ignored The Final Cut as I see that as a Roger Waters solo album. I know Roger sees Momentary Lapse of Reason as a David Gilmour solo album, but he is wrong, and a very grumpy old man as well.
You are right that “I want you back” is sung as part of the backing vocals, but I swear I’ve never noticed that before.
