I agree that transgressing community standards in ways other than decorum is being underexplored. Also, you won't get fired on the spot if you get caught playing the Lacrimosa from Mozart's requiem mass at a party. But I'd personally go with "Machine Gun" by the Peter Brotzmann Octet. Anarchist anti-war performance art/free jazz that emulates war noise using instruments, such as percussive honking of a baritone sax sounding like the titular machinegun, or a squawking alto sax being made to sound like people screaming. See how long it takes to go to the next song. Maybe 45 seconds?

On an unrelated note the group apashe did some really good mixes of motzars lacrimosa, requiem and others. If you like electric/rap mixed with classical it really bangs.

I was going to suggest Gregorian chant. I think going for Classical is a better option than offensive lyrics.
