JDB, Chazal didn’t pick Shir Hashirim as a wild example of what someone might decide to sing. The point is obvious: to use the words of Shir Hashirim, that are Kodesh Kodoshim, for his own song about his own love. Any singer who sings a Pasuk is using the words for its actual meaning. If anything, those songs that use Pesukim only for its rhythmic sounds (e.g. Vedibarta bom bom, bom bom bom) would be a case of עשאוני בניך ככנור ונבל.
