2 minutes of magic

The Ramones - California Sun
The Smiths - Panic
The Housemartins - Happy Hour
Guided by Voices - Game of Pricks

Short songs of pure indie/power pop magic that last two minutes or thereabouts.
I'm sure there are plenty more out there I don't know of if anyone wants to add to the list.

Teenage Kicks is a very obvious one

And a not so obvious one is Weezer - Buddy Holly

Many of Mike Krols songs are about 2 minutes long

Was only listening to it the other day and forgot to put it in.

The Lemonheads have a few short ones - Rockin' Stroll/Being around/It's all true

Sebadoh - Rebound
Foo Fighters - Up in arms
