Taylor Swift does this at least twice that I can think of on her first album. 'Tim McGraw', the first track, and 'Our Song', the last one.

In the early 90s, a Finnish dance act called Allekirjoittanut had a song on their album called (in Finnish) "A Really Catchy Filler Song". The chorus of the song went something like this (translated from Finnish):
This is a really catchy filler songIf it gets stuck in your headPlease contact your doctorOr go the hospital
Basically the whole song was about how Allekirjoittanut's producer is demanding for one more song to fill their album, and they need to come up with something quickly. And the funny thing was, it really was a very catch filler song and it did get stuck in your head. The song even had a rap section that began something like this:
But now we're gonna have a hectic rap sectionIt's an international trend these daysIt's certainly quite refreshingNot to have to listen to the same guy for the whole song...

Blues Traveler "Hook" is also about how catchy it is, but with a bit of an edge of mocking you for getting caught.
