Name that song

[snowman]

Here are some lines from some classics. You tell me the title and the band/artist:

1.) "Toss me a cigarette, I think there's one in my raincoat."

2.) "Finished with my woman 'cause she couldn't help me with my mind."

3.) "Am I in my cabin dreaming, or are you really scheming to take my ship away from me?"

4.) "Everybody smash up your seats and rock to this brand new beat!"

5.) "If I had ever been here before I would probably know just what to do, don't you?"

6.) "It was kind of cold that night. She stood alone on her balcony."

7.) "So may I introduce to you, the one and only Billy Shears."

8.) "Gold and rose the colors of a dream I had. Not too long ago."

9.) "He went to fight wars for his country and his king."

10.) "Freight train, each car looks the same, all the same."

11.) It wasn't easy for me to be a scared white boy in a black neighborhood."

These should be a piece of cake for us "seasoned citizens".
