Taking IP's almost title track 1 step further.......

Name albums where the album title is part of song lyric on that album. The title can only be mentioned in a song.....the album can't have a title track or very close to title track.

Elvis Costello - My Aim Is True (album), only in the lyrics of Alison
Elvis Costello - King Of America (album), only in the lyrics of Brilliant Mistake
Elvis Costello - Blood & Chocolate (album), only in the lyrics of Uncomplicated
Grateful Dead - Wake Of The Flood (album), only in the lyrics of Here Comes Sunshine
Dire Straits - Making Movies (album) - lyrics of Skateaway

There are a few others I can think of (one obvious)

XTC did this accidentally when the album Oranges and Lemons referenced the opening lyric of "Ballet For A Rainy Day" from the previous album Skylarking, and then again when the next album Nonsuch inadvertantly quoted "Chalkhills and Children" from Oranges and Lemons. By the time they released Apple Venus Vol. 1 the album title was deliberately chosen from the song "Then She Appeared" from Nonsuch. (Wasp Star, the subtitle for Apple Venus Vol. 2 was not a reference to any lyrics off of Vol. 1.)

Hank:
Isn't it "live baby live" (as in to live) from "New Sensation" and not "live baby live" (as in In Concert)? Also, that wasn't even the same album?
Just wondering.
