I am not sure if this is what you are looking for or not.  I tend to love songs by Jack Johnson because people are entertained by them yet he speaks slowly and clearly enough for my students to understand.  There is a song called "Cookie Jar" that could be interesting.  In this song, it begs the question - whose fault is childhood/teenage violance.  Basically, the singer first blames it on the boy, then the TV and News Media, then the Parents, Video Games, Movie Stars, and Video Games.  It is a great segway into talking about the impact of the media on today�s society.
 
Good luck!
