You can hear music through rolled up windows. A single pane of glass, unfortunately, doesn't magically stop sound waves and intense vibrations.
Actually, in most areas, playing music that can be heard clearly from 10-20 feet away is illegal in most cities I know of. (Admittedly, I don't travel much.) If you can hear offensive music from inside your own vehical, the general procedure is to note the liscense plate number and report the violation of noise pollution laws as soon as it's convenient. If everyone did, the number of offenses would decline with every fine issued, and the subject of censoring the lyrics would be a moot point. The issue here isn't a matter of morals, it's a matter of common courtesy and noise pollution. Personally, I'd be offended at music that loud no matter what was playing...
