But it depends on waht the songs are like. I mean, the other song called money (the one by the beatles/flying lizards/thee headcoatees/loads of other bands) is not pretentious because it's not about the concept of money in a serious way

I've never thought of those one-word song titles being pretentious, and more just stupid and showing a lack of creativity. Pretentious are those obnoxiously long black metal or Nile song titles (I love Nile, but some of their song titles are too long):
These are pretentious song titles:
Natural Liberation Of Fear Through The Ritual Deception Of Death
Chapter Of Obeisance Before Giving Breath To The Inert One In The Presence Of The Cresent Shaped Horns
Dusk Falls Upon The Temple Of The Serpent On The Mount Of Sunrise (This is a 50-second intro)
