Need a song to "Analyze"

No I'm not asking anybody to do my HW for me, but I am asking for somebody to use their musical knowledge to find me a song that I can use to do my HW sucesfully. I've been assigned to find a song, then decipher the lyrics and write a report on the meaning of the song. Unfortunatly, my slim collection of Frank Ocean and Foster the People isn't quite cutting it for "complexity's sake."

I'm thinking some good music might be like The Beatles, maybe some jazz, I'm really open to anything on this one. A DL link to the song or even the album it's in would be appreciated. (I'm a bit of a organization freak) I like to have entire albums most of the time to keep the singles classified.
 
Pink Floyd is always good for these sorts of things.

May I suggest "welcome to the machine" or "have a cigar" off the album wish you were here
 
I would suggest punk floyd too but maybe "breathe" or "brain damage" from dark side of the moon or maybe "comfortably numb" off of the wall
 
Echoes is a little lyrically tricky I think, but it is a dope track.

Pick a song off The Wall, and then watch the accompanying movie segment.

Best way to figure it out fo sho.
 
Classical music and music from the Romantic period and France are great for starters.

This guy has a channel with all the notes graphically represented which will help you a lot.

 
seriously, pick one of these....
