The greatest may be "Use Me" by Bill Withers.
The chorus is:
"Well I'm here to spread the news
That if it feels this good getting used
Keep on using me until you use me up"
Grace Jones's version is killer.
"Sexy Sadie" by The Beatles was based on how the Mahareshi Mahesh Yogi earned their trust and then let them down. Key line: "You made a fool of everyone..."

dunno what genre you're looking into but i'm very much a rock chick. try silverchair. i think they write a lot of material about being used, but the only one i could think of right now is "abuse me" from their 1995 album "freak show".
i think radiohead's song "high and dry" is also about being used. staind also has good songs. but my favourite bands come from australia, bands like something for kate (SFK), big heavy stuff, killing heidi, george, and motor ace.
the band george www.myspace.com/georgetheband has a good song called "sellout" which is an absolute masterpiece... it is about being used. alternative meets classical music meets jazz--delicious stuff!
SFK www.somethingforkate.com has a song called "jerry stand up" from their 2001 album "echolalia" about an old man called jerry who's getting old and worn out because he's losing heart and people don't appreciate him. the same album has a song called "feeding the birds and hoping for something in return". good songs for those who appreciate poetic/philosophical lyrics.
