#You just got used to saying no - Frank Turner: Reasons Not To Be an Idiot

24. I poked my finger down inside makin' a little room for a ant to hide; nature's candy in my hand or can or a pie

(There's actually a bit of an instrumental here, with one of them going "yeah yeah" in the background, and after a while it gets to...) #Millions of peaches, peaches for me; millions of peaches, peaches for free - Presidents of the USA: Peaches

20. Ooooo you make me live; whatever this world can give to me

I got you, you're all that I need - Queen - You're my Best Friend.

And Rikk got 17 and 24.

3 -"And she......." I think that word goes on for half the song, so that must count as the next line
Andreas Johnson - Glorious

4a-I knew this one, except I thought I was wrong, stupid boy

5a-I know artist and song, but not the next line...

12-"So please save me, save me from myself, I can't be the only one left on the shelf" - but I may have missed a bit before that...
Turin Brakes - Underdog (Save Me)

17-I think it's "So get up, get up, get up now"
Frank Turner - Reasons to Be an Idiot ???

20-Got this as well :-(

21-"Like a knock on the door when there's ten or more things to do"
Crowded House -Nails in my Feet

28-"And you're driving your fabulous car, listening to the music that reminds you, you used to be young, you used to be young"

3. indeed
5a. (I was tired...) Go on, give the artist and song and I'll give you half-points...
12. yep
17. Rikk got this one (Crocodilewings) but very close (the line you're thinking of is So, get up, get down and get outside, which follows the line rikk got
20. I thought you'd get that.
21 and 28. Only you would get these... why do people not hold Crowded House and Tom McRae in as high esteem as us? I mean, people like them but noone ever thinks they are fantastic...
29. You should know it - you got me into her
