 Ideas for my final English essay

So basically I have the broad topic of being able to write a 3-5 page paper about any music video that I want to. The video needs to have a message that can be interpreted and written about.
Right now I wanted to do a Tool song but I am open to ideas
Feel free to throw out some good ideas for me, you can include a link to the music video also if you want. The essay was just assigned today so I am taking the rest of the week just to come up with the video/song I want to do

I came to class stoned out of my mind every day, i chugged vodka in the back of class, i put dead fish in the ceiling tiles. i put a gallon of old milk and orange juice in the file cabinet before winter vacation. i brought snakes in a tied up sweater and let them loose during class. i didnt go to school to learn, i went because i had to. i didnt care, and i didn't fucking listen to that stupid bitch. and i still don't fucking care. i tore the pages out of her books and burned them, and threw away all the books in the class, two books per day.

Pretty much is a high school class. It's for ENG101, most of our essays have been much more strict topics but this one is pretty open. The teacher is a pretty cool guy

That was my original idea. My only problem with Tool is some of their songs/ videos are very confusing. But we'll see, I am still in my brainstorming phase

If anyone else has any ideas please throw some out. I am dedicating the rest of the night to deciding on a music video/ song to do my paper on
I was sort of thinking of doing a FloBots song, maybe a 2pac song. I'll be looking into some Floyd songs too but I have to read this to the class so I could see something like "comfortably numb" being a little more revealing than I want

Definitely, for anyone interested. I wish I could find a really good song and just get started going to work
1. Kansas- Carry on Wayward Son, my problem is that is doesnt have an actual MUSIC video the way I really need for the assignment
2. FloBots- Stand Up
MOAR SUGGESTIONS!
Just post up your all-time favorite song that means a lot to you!!! for whatever reason. I really do need something that has a good music video with it!

You should pick a good song though. I once wrote a paper about drugs in music and how they affect people. Used BTNH - Xtasy and some other tune I think it was a velvet underground track

Talking Heads are great. I wish I could have seen Byrne when he toured around here.
