Musical monday #27

This week's challenge comes courtesy of Apollo C.Vermouth.

Guess the song titles, guess the theme. No fair googling the lyrics.

1) "Send them looking out for their woman send them reaching out for their dollar"
2) "I can bite like a turkey/I can slam like a drake"
3) "We were at a policy meeting/They were planning new ways of cheating"
4) "Oh it don't mean a thing/When the leader's singing"
5) "Over my window, they'd written my name"
6) "Maybe shes a devil in disguise"
7) "Someone is spending my money for me"
8) "I'm off the beaten track."
9) "I'd rather give my love to a poor guy that has a love that's true"
10) "We never had the love that every child oughta get"
11) "Say goodbye in the wind and the rain in the back street."
12) "He's just here from Alabama" Sister Ray--Velvet Underground
13) "You vanish with the night"
14) "I'm gonna tell everybody that I'm down in misery"
15) "Would you pardon me if it's a nineteen carat golden thing"
16) "Because believin' and deceivin', it's drivin' me to grievin' now."
17) "We gotta be extra careful that we don't build our hopes too high"
18) "But nobody seems to understand/What make a man can feel so blue."
19) "A splendid time is guaranteed for all"
20) "My friend works for the national health."
21) "Do anything take us out of this gloom"
22) "I'm tired of being told what to think/I'm tired of being told what to do."
And a few from me
23) That boy drank all that night don't know why
24) And there I stood with a arrow in my back.
25) You didn't stop to make me feel better
