Another that seems fitting to the current version of Lyle; Invisible Kid by Metallica (off the St. Anger album).
Invisible kid Never see what he did got stuck where he hid Fallen through the grid Invisible kid Got a place of his own Where he'll never be known Inward he's grown Invisible kid Never see what he did got stuck where he hid Fallen through the grid Invisible kid Got a place of his own Where he'll never be known Inward he's grown
Invisible kid Locked away in his brain From the shame and the pain World down the drain Invisible kid Suspious of your touch Don't want no crutch But it's all too much Invisible kid Locked away in his brain From the shame and the pain World down the drain Invisible kid Suspious of your touch Don't want no crutch But it's all too much, yeah
I hide inside I hurt inside I hide inside, but i'll show you...
I'm ok, just go away Into distance let me fade I'm ok, just go away I'm ok, but please don't stray too far
Open your heart I'm beating right here Open your mind I'm being right here, right now Open your heart I'm beating right here Open your mind I'm being right here, right now

Ooh, what a good boy you are Out of the way and you're kept to yourself Ooh, Can't you see that he's not here He doesn't want the attention you give Ooh, unplugging from it all Invisible Kid floats alone in his room Ooh what a quiet boy you are He looks so calm floating 'round and around in himself...
Invisible kid Locked away is his brain From the shame and the pain World down the drain Invisible kid Suspious of your touch Don't want no crutch But it's all to much Invisible kid Locked away is his brain From the shame and the pain World down the drain Invisible kid Suspious of your touch Don't want no crutch But it's all to much

This will be on the Legion album I'm making. 26 tracks, one for each of the allowed 25 Legionnaires and a song called Legionnaires by Dutch Kills.

The next one I need to find. By Misinformed Manzerick:
SATURN GIRL Can you read my mind Do you know what’s going through my head I think that you could, I?m convinced that you can Every move I make, you counter, I fled I am the prisoner of the girl from Titan When I look at you, you know exactly what I’m thinking Imra Ardeen, please leave me be Garth Ranzz, Rokk Krin, It feels like I’m sinking There’s nothing that Saturn Girl’s mind cannot see Your pink outfit taunts me, the globe on your chest Your long blond hair is burning my eyes Send out your pulse waves, you know you?re the best You are the girls all us villains despise And I am one of them, but my power is weak I possess the capability to do flips and fly I have super-hearing, but not super-strength And I have been known to shoot flames out my eye But I’m no match for you and your legion of heroes Oh, Imra Ardeen, please leave me be Chameleon, Element Lad, they are all zeroes I can beat them, but Saturn Girl can beat me What’s inside your utility belt I like your headquarters, could you give me a tour? My powers aren’t special, I’m no Ultra Boy And I’m from the twentieth century, do you find me a bore? When I look at you, you know exactly what I’m thinking…

Okay, I've located a copy of the MP3. Now to find the video they made. Supposedly the band was sued by Time Warner and the video was destroyed in the early 90's.
I cannot believe that there are not one, but THREE songs (Wedding of BB, MELad, and this one) explicitly about the characters of the LSH (I think it's safe to say the others here are coincidental name-matching, though I wonder about Paula Cole's "Saturn Girl"...)
Thanks for posting! I imagine there will be a lot more of these now that the LSH is publicly "outed" with the cartoon, so it is good that you catalogued these now.
I had thought that prior to the new cartoon, the most public exposure of the LSH were the 70's Slurpee Cups and the appearance of an LSH comic on the OC. How wrong I was.
I'd have to say that my favorite is "Matter-Eater Lad"..."Yeah he's Mad, he's Matter-Eater Lad" sticks in one's head quite nicely.

Right now, no. But I'm always scouring for the net for others.

Of course, that could explain why Guided by Voices is one of the most influential bands of the last couple of decades, while Yoyodyne and Misinformed Manzerick aren't.

Here is an interesting name check of the Legion in the description of an album. Can't tell from the previews whether there's any deeper connection.
