Korn "Got the Life" kick-starts me when I'm lounging round the house useless.
"Big Yellow Taxi" - Joni Mitchell, or the cover by Counting Crows (or one of a myriad of other covers) and "Round Here" by Counting Crows both give me a "world's in a bad way, get off your arse and do something about it" feeling.
Pink Floyd's "Time" and "Breathe" kinda say the same thing from the opposite end of the spectrum - "Time" tells you off for wasting your life and achieving nothing, "Breathe" tells you off for running around like a headless chicken all your life and achieving nothing.
Smashmouth's "Walking on the Sun", and Soul Asylum's "Runaway Train" spring to mind too.
Damn, if I have so many of these songs, why do I never achieve anything? :)
