Yes, she disapproved of many songs as I recall including Alice Cooper (School's Out) and the one you mentioned - can't think of any others specifically, but I know there were a lot of them. Nothing was safe from her.
As for Tom & Jerry, I don't know if she commented specifically about them, or perhaps she meant cartoons in general - after all any cartoon would have a certain level of violence. Even Doctor Who came in for some criticism from her as well.
