    Well, for a starter, there's the appropriately-titled 'James Dean (I Wanna Know )' by Daniel Bedingfield, a recent UK chart hit. I'm sure that some other helpful trivia fanatics can think of some more.

    There's a Half Man Half Biscuit song '99% of Gargoyles Look Like Bob Todd' that contains the lyric:

    "James Dean was just a careless driver and Marilyn Monroe was just a slag"

    ... and whilst not in a lyric, the Morrissey video for 'Seudehead' is basically built about James Dean. It features his home town, site of death, grave, etc.

    John Cougar Mellencamp had a line in 'Jack and Diane' that said "Scratches his head and does his best James Dean."

    Oh yeah, there was another I just remembered. It's an old song ... Lou Reed's 'Walk on the Wild Side' had a line that said, "Thought she was James Dean for a day."
