I'm sometimes able to copy paste the demonstrations themselves and put
them in Mathematica, but how can I then make it show me the source
code?

You needn't do the copy paste in order to watch the demonstration. Go right
 ahead. And if you look at the column to the right of the figure, you find 
what you want: "download source code".

On each Demonstration page, here is a button to click to get the notebook, which has the source code.

I think I remember seeing a similar button on recent CDFs, but if not, the webpage for the demonstration always has the button to get the code.
