RaFRaG is so worthy of mention for its perfect first half, but going strictly by the rules, three songs not counting intros, gotta go with Smash. That's about as good as it gets for me.
Jennifer Lost The War/Elders/Out On Patrol
Session/We Are One/Kick Him WHen He's Down
Nitro (Youth Energy)/Bad Habit/Gotta Get Away
The Meaning Of Life/Mota/Me & My Old Lady
Have You Ever/Staring At The Sun/Pretty Fly (For A White Guy)
Come Out Swinging/Original Prankster/Want You Bad
The Noose/Long Way Home/Hit That
Half-Truism/Trust In You/You're Gonna Go Far, Kid

Of all the albums with the three songs you listed I actually think RaFRaG has the best three songs.
For each of the rest of them I'll admit I usually don't listen to one. Like, it would've been Ixnay but I don't actively listen to Me and My Old Lady a lot
or hit that for example.
Smash is probably a close second for me.
When we're ready to sing, we step up to the microphone, and it comes out something like this.
Really? I'm the only one?
Your back's to the wall, that's protocol;
It's sequestering your spirit, misleading us all.

Mota 9,8/10

I'm with Krojd. Though I don't really like Me & My Old Lady, Meaning of Life + Mota is terrific. Plus, Disclaimer is pretty cool as well.
My other choices could be the Self Titled (cause of Elders and Out on Patrol) and Smash.
The only one voting that Original Prankster joke... Come Out Swingin' is great, but... the following track...
Only one fucking choice? ONE?
Jennifer Lost the War
Session
Nitro
Half-Truism
Also, Have You Ever, The Noose and Come Out Swinging are not bad either.
Neocon is a real song! Why must a song be at a certain length to be considered a song? Are you saying that Minor Threat never made any "real" songs?
It's hard to me to choose between Splinter and Ignition. Neocon + The Noose are such great songs, but Session is also a great opening.
Okay, my poll/thread sucks. Someone else make a better one and we'll let this one fade away until it's a distant memory.
EDIT: I'm an idiot and was wrong to design this thread the way I did. That's why I haven't bothered to defend myself. I have no defense.

1st Americana
2nd Smash
3rd Splinter
But, Smash is very close if not better. Not really into Neocon, but The Noose is great. Ixnay is interesting too.
