Music meme - round 4

Step 1: I put my media player on random. [Well, kinda]
Step 2: I picked a line from the first 20 songs that played.
Step 3: I am posting the lines here for your guessing pleasure. Song title and artist please.
Step 4: I will cross out the songs as they are guessed correctly.

Yeah, yeah, we all know how to Google, but let’s not. Cheaters will be set on fire.

This was originally found via Paul.

Play nice boys and girls.

1)
Grew a moustache and a mullet,
Got a job at chic-fil-a.
Citing artistic differences the band broke up in May,
and in June reformed without me, and they got a different name.
I nuked another grandma’s apple pie
and hung my head in shame.

2)
Well there’s a small boat made of china
Going nowhere on the mantlepiece
Well do I lie like a loungeroom lizard
Or do I sing like a bird released

3)
Long before the white man and long before the wheel
When the green dark forest was too silent to be real
But time has no beginnings and hist’ry has no bounds
And to this verdant country they came from all around

4)
It’s like a jungle sometimes, it makes me wonder
How I keep from going under

5)
Wouldn’t it be great, if no one ever got offended
Wouldn’t it be great to say what’s really on your mind
And I have always said, “All the rules are made for bending”
And if I let my hair down, would that be such a crime?

6)
I pledge allegiance to the underworld
One nation under dog

7)
We ruled the world - we killed and robbed,
The fucking lot - but we don’t feel bad.
It was done beneath the flag of democracy,
You’ll believe and I do - yes I do - yes I do -
yes I do -

They stop you in the street - they wanna know your name
To reach you on the phone - cause they know your game
Always running up the alley - trying to get home
Or standing on the corner - never alone

9)
Been around the world and found
That only stupid people are breeding
The cretins cloning and feeding
And i don’t even own a tv

10)
And all the world is football-shaped,
It’s just for me to kick in space,
And I can see, hear, smell, touch, taste,
And I’ve got one, two, three, four, five

11)
Walking, walking,
On the tight rope of insanity
On the verge of losing mind

12)
I was born by the railroad tracks
Well the train whistle wailed and I wailed right back
Well papa left mama when I was quite young
He said now “One of these days you’re gonna follow me son”

13)
That stupid old bug
That kills only love
I want to be good
Is that not enough

14)
Aotearoa, rugged individual,
Glisten like a pearl,
At the bottom of the world.
The tyranny of distance,
Didn’t stop the cavalier,
So why should it stop me,
I’ll conquer and stay free.

15)
Everybody’s watching. everybody’s looking.
She’s such a sucker. he don’t want to fuck her.
He is gonnna kiss me, if he doesn’t miss me.
I am ready for it now. already on the ground.
Five minutes in the closet with you.
Oooh! five minutes in the closet with you.

16)
Once upon a time at home
I sat beside the telephone
Waiting for someone to pull me through
When at last it didn’t ring, I knew it wasn’t you

17)
The voices in your head are calling
Stop wasting your time, there’s nothing coming
Only a fool would think someone could save you
The men at the factory are old and cunning
You don’t owe nothing, so boy get runnin’
It’s the best years of your life they want to steal

18)
Will you stay with me, will you be my love
Among the fields of barley

19)
I can’t seem to face up to the facts
I’m tense and nervous and i
Can’t relax
I can’t sleep ’cause my bed’s on fire
Don’t touch me I’m a real live wire

20)
Yesterday I got so old
I felt like I could die
Yesterday I got so old
It made me want to cry
