I need help picking an easy drum song!

For my Percussion class in school, we're doing a project that involves learning the drums to a song, and then playing along with the track. I'm stumped, since most of the bands I listen to are metal or progressive. Can anyone lay down some suggestions? Mind you, it can't be anything silly, since I will be at full judgement of my peers here.

Buddy Holly by Weezer was the first song I learned on drums. Super easy stuff.

AC/DC's "You Shook Me All Night Long" is a very easy and fun song to play on drums.

Metal Health by Quiet Riot is simple yet has some cool areas. Its not the most simple thing that your peers will make fun of you anyway.
