God, why am I doing this?

Okay, so I saw this on some livejournal a long time ago. I'm not one for participating in these things, but it's about music. The rules state:

Step 1: Put your Winamp or equivalent on random.
Step 2: Post the first line from the first 25 songs that play, no matter how embarrassing.
Step 3: Bold out the songs when someone guesses the name/group correctly.
Step 4: Looking them up on Google or any other search engine is CHEATING!!!

Anyway, I don't really care about the whole guessing part (though, feel free to tell me if you recognize a song so I can feel like I'm sharing a music moment with you), since I don't really have access to your internet search records. Really I just felt like listening to 25 random songs because I didn't know what to listen to anyway.

1. I got a patch, I got a pin. Obtained political beliefs from the same songs as my friends.
Um, next was an instrumental. I'm not sure how to write the lyrics to music. I suppose I could use some form of "do re mi," but I'll just hit next instead. I hope I don't break any rules.
3. I have seen the world's most beautiful women undress in ordinary solitude.
4. Birds fly into my windshield.
5. tobidashite yokogiru neko no kage
6. Oh, how hope has died.
7. Take this, take this too far.
8. I woke up on the wrong side of the floor.
9. Car broke down in Arizona, have to ride the bus again.
Another instrumental.
11. I exit through the spotlight glare, I stepped out into thin air.
12. When I look around, I only see out of one eye.
13. Pick you up in the suburbs tomorrow. We won't tell, they won't follow.
14. Have you felt that something, you know, that something that keeps you sane?
15. Did you forget about me? Has the same never happened to you?
16. Words, they echo in my mind.
Geez, another instrumental. Furthermore, it's by the same band as number 2 (They do have verbal songs, I swear, in fact it's also the same band as number 4).
18. Abusive excuses are all I have to hold.
19. One-track-minded you, bad habits are killing you.
20. You know you've got it all wrong, there's no other way to find it.
Another instrumental. Actually it was just the introduction to a song on a live album where the band is just talking. Worthless 18 seconds.
22. I was dreaming of your love.
23. I'm in Los Angeles today. It smells like an airport runway.
Another lyric-less song. Actually it's a real song that the band just played backwards later in the same album. Thrilling results just by doing this silly list.
25. This is not a photograph.

Okay, now I suppose I should make up for those songs that didn't have lyrics. Sigh. Only I would make such a meme-chore as this into something so goofy.

26. A one-trick pony in a one-horse town.
27. Take advantage of these times, you said.
28. There's a steel train coming though. I would take it if I could.
29. What's with these homies dissin' my girl? Why do they gotta front?
30. Back in the garage with my bullshit detector, carbon monoxide making sure it's effective.

Ok. Three of these songs' first lines are or contain the very name of the songs. I almost wanted to skip them for cheating. I also almost had two songs with the same name by different bands, but luckily (?) the song was mistagged. What a mistagged song was doing in my collection, I don't know. I should just sleep. Whatever.

spreads like a virus, music
