Some songs included "Family Reunion" and "13 Miles". You can look up these lyrics, but I assure you they are ranker than any local tavern. Other than a letter writing campaign to the School, League and MHSAA what options does a disgruntled fan have?

Maybe there is a procedure in your area, but there is no procedure that I am aware of where I live.
I think all you can do is inform the school of the content. It is not unusual that the adults at the school did not make the tape or put the specific songs on the tape. Usually some kid or player did so at the request of the team and the content was not reviewed before it was played. Most adults do not know the lyrics of most modern songs in the first place and really do not pay attention to the content. They hear the beat and ignore the actual content. Not sure outside of that there is much you can do at this time.
