| "(Don't Fear) The Reaper" | Blue Öyster Cult | The band's guitarist, Donald "Buck Dharma" Roser, wrote the song. He debunked the idea that it promoted suicide, and said it was about the inevitability of death; some people interpret the lyrics as suggesting a murder-suicide because of the mention of Romeo and Juliet.[1] | 1976 | Rock |
| "Killing in the Name" | Rage Against the Machine | Unsubstantiated accusations of racism by law enforcement agencies, going as far as to accuse them of supporting the Ku Klux Klan. "Some of those that work forces, are the same that burn crosses". | 1992 | Rock |
| "Bodies" | Drowning Pool | "Let the bodies hit the floor"; bad coincidental release timeline in conjunction with 9/11. It was also used to break the will of soldiers during the Iraq War, seems to promote violence and bloodshed. | 2001 | rock/heavy metal |
| "Beds are Burning" | Midnight Oil | Calls for an extremely drastic compromise in response to the Aboriginal conflicts; handing back Australia. | 1987 | rock |

| "Lying is The Most Fun A Girl Can Have Without Taking Her Clothes Off" | Panic! At the Disco | Liberalism at its finest: promoting sexual immorality in young adults. | 2010 | Pop |
| "This Land Is Your Land" | Woody Guthrie (also recorded by various liberal/socialist artists) | Song attacking the institution of private property, promoting welfare and criticising the poverty that exists under the capitalist system. | 1940 | Folk |
| "Back in the USSR" | The Beatles | A parody of Beach Boy songs, as well as "Back in the U.S.A." by Chuck Berry.[2] | 1968 | Pop |
| "Yes We Can" | will.i.am | A pro-Obama propaganda song. | 2008 | Hip hop |
| "Born This Way" | Lady Gaga | A song promoting the fallacy that homosexuality is a legitimate lifestyle into which people are born. | 2011 | Pop |

| "If I Had A Rocket Launcher" | Bruce Cockburn | A song which denounces regulated borders and the military in general | 1984 | Pop Rock |
| "The Internationale" | Eugène Pottier/Pierre De Geyter | A song promoting the abolition of private property and all individual liberty. | 1888 | Random noise strung together. |

| "Klstrphnky" | Ted Nugent | A disgusting, filthy perverted song. | 2002 | Hard Rock |
| "Crave" | Ted Nugent | While not as filthy as other Ted Nugent songs, it should still be condemned for the line "Sure I've lived the American Dream", suggesting that Nugent's sexual degeneracy is the American Dream. | 2002 | Hard Rock |
| "My Baby Likes My Butter on Her Gritz" | Ted Nugent | A disgusting, filthy perverted song. | 2002 | Hard Rock |
| "Sexpot" | Ted Nugent | A disgusting, filthy perverted song. | 2002 | Hard Rock |
