A bunch of stuff in the classical realm fits that bill, holst's the planets, a bunch of operas some with words some without many in other languages you wouldn't understand. One modern song with words that I want to be in these comments is Albuquerque by weird Al. I'll also mention Maggot brain by funkadelic
I had forgotten about maggot brain, such a great song! Thanks for reminding me.
Beethoven's Symphonies come to mind. His 5th and 6th symphonies really do tell stories and are very engaging.
I actually had a music teacher that used the 5th as an example. It's a story of dundundun duuuun
Variations on a theme of dundundun duuuun
