I don't listen to music and i was wondering does anybody know a song that has metaphors and different meanings

Puff the Magic Dragon, Peter Paul %26amp; Mary


Yellow Submarine, Beatles


Ghost Riders in the Sky, Johnny Cash et al


Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds, Beatles





There are literally hundreds but that should get you started. Two from the Beatles, one from the Folk Song field and one from Country Western.





Look into the protest songs of the 60's and I would bet there is a lot of hidden meaning in many or the RAP songs although I must confess I don't listen to a lot of that particular type of music.

have you ever heard of the beatles... that was a major controversy with their music. listen to "lucy in the sky with diamonds" they said it was about a drawing their daughter drew and outrages people around the world thought it was about drugs and being high.





you just have to look towards any music that has been "controvertial" in the last 50 years and their us usually something behind the music or people think their is.





hope that helps
