I don't think there's any real songs that are explicitly about autism or Asperger's, but here's some that seem like they might imply it:
"White & Nerdy" by "Weird Al" Yankovic
It seems like it could be about an aspie, but it can only really apply to white aspies.
"Psycho Killer" by Talking Heads
I know this song (as the title implies) is about a serial killer, but some of the lyrics seem like characteristics of Asperger's. Also, David Byrne (the band's frontman) suspects himself of having Asperger's. This would explain his goofy madman style of singing and the band's quirky songs and lyrics.
"Smells Like Teen Spirit" by Nirvana
It's definitely not an aspie song, but teenage aspies might be able to relate to the lyrics.
"Cars" by Gary Numan
He's singing about how he loves his car and feels safe in it, which seems like it might be an autistic trait. Also, Gary Numan is a diagnosed aspie.
"Basket Case" by Green Day
A song about paranoia, a significant part of a typical aspie's life, as they are often bullied and thus think everyone's out to get them.
"I'm Only Sleeping" by The Beatles
I can certainly relate to this song, especially when I have to get up on schooldays, which I hate doing. Obviously, it's not just aspies who like sleeping in, though.
"Mr. Roboto" by Styx
I'm sure it wasn't intended this way, but you could interpret the lyrics as a metaphor for aspies trying to hide their differences and conform to the way everyone else is.
"Nowhere Man" by The Beatles
Sounds like the guy in this song is either off in his own little world or just has a really boring life.
