Since the title of the the thread is "mid-song key changes," not just modulations, I can think of two songs where the choruses and the verses are in different keys: "Good Day Sunshine" by the Beatles and "Your Precious Love" by Marvin Gaye and Tammy Terrell. Anything else belong on that list?

And there are probably lots where there's a key change for the bridge. "Here there and Everywhere" and "Dream a Little Dream of Me" are two that come to mind. With the latter, I've heard versions where, relative to the verse, the bridge drops a minor third and others where it drops a major third. They both sound fine if the arrangement elegantly works its way back to the verse.
