Good song with hidden meanings to analyze?

I have to analyze a song (of my choise) in my English class and i was wondering if anyone knew of a song with plenty of hidden meanings? (ex. the holy trinidy in American Pie represents the three great rock stars that died in a plane crash [sorry i cant remember their names])





thanks

Bob Dylan songs would be really great. All Along the Watchtower, Like a Rolling Stone, A Hard Rain's A-gonna Fall....

but anything by tori amos would be wonderful.


she's got a complex mind. a lot of crazy, tragic things happened throughout her life. her lyrics are hard to figure out in my opinion.

Reply:Almost any Led Zepplin song will do, same with the beetles. (Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds), Lucy Sky Diamonds, LSD.
Reply:swing low, sweet chariot (a song about the underground railroad and slavery)





it had a lot of great meaning to the enslaved ppl
