Sorry for the wait...
Here's the answers to my lyric list. I'm still kinda surprised no one got these...
As said, the music is from 1998. The titles follow the lyrics.
1. If I can shoot rabbits, then I can shoot fascists
("If You Tolerate This Your Children Will Be Next"--Manic Street Preachers)
2. Everybody wants to hang around, everybody wants to bring me down
("Hellbent"--Superdrag)
3. Love, love is a verb, love is a doing word
("Teardrop"--Massive Attack)
4. It's what men in stained raincoats pay for
("This is Hardcore"--Pulp)
5. Ou sont tes heros aux corps d'athletes?
("Sexy Boy"--Air)
6. A friend in need's a freind indeed, a friend with weed is better
("Pure Morning"--Placebo)
7. A mafioso story with a twist, a To Wong Foo Julie Newmar hitch
("Drinking in L.A."--Bran Van 3000)
8. Sometimes life's not fair, I correct myself, I mean all the time
("From Your Mouth"--God Lives Underwater)
9. I'd rather stay bold and lonely, I dream I'm your one and only
("Mulder and Scully"--Catatonia)
10. But I'm okay, how are you? Thanks for asking, thanks for asking
("Palo Alto"--Radiohead)
11. Nobody gives you a chance or a dollar in this old town
("The Boy With the Arab Strap"--Belle & Sebastian)
12. Who could ever be so cruel, blame the devil for the things you do
("Nobody's Fault But My Own"--Beck)
13. Flows through me, in through me, out through me, over me, feeling me, feeding me electrically
("Nursery Rhyme"--UNKLE)
14. Banks and banks of humming machinery...I've never seen so many knobs!
(sample from "Bang On!"--Propellerheads)
15. It may be okay, but you won't wear our teeshirts now
("All the Kids Are Right"--Local H)
16. You will harbor those who nurtured Europe's War
("Cancer"--Mansun) (okay, this one was a bit obscure...)
17. We watch Lost in Space on my TV
("Barbarella"--Scott Weiland)
18. I get this way when I try to get over you
("Sometimes It Hurts"--Stabbing Westward)
19. I looked into your eyes and saw a world that does not exist
("Touched"--Vast)
20. You could move in with me, into my pretty hell
("Pleasant Smell"--12 Rounds)
21. Life is unfair, kill yourself or get over it
("Child Psychology"--Black Box Recorder)
22. Download my dread, disarm my mind, make it dry
("Until I Wake Up"--Dishwalla)
23. So loud and clear that I`ll make you glad if I`m leaving first and crying
("All You Good Good People"--Embrace)
24. I’m so glad that my memories remote ’cos I’m doing just fine hour to hour, note to note
("Waltz #2 (XO)"--Elliott Smith)
25. You're the one I cut and pasted
("I'm Expanding My Mind"--Superdrag)
Okay, maybe my next list will be songs you're embarrassed to admit you know... :D

And if you can find a song that I would be embarrassed to own up to liking, it will be turnup for the book. I am fairly unabashed in my appreciation of things scorned by others....
