I used to have trouble sleeping at night. My mother would try to talk me into falling asleep sometimes by saying, "You need your rest, we're getting up at the crack of dawn tomorrow!" What I heard was "We're getting up at the crackadon tomorrow," and I always thought she was talking about some dinosaur that was out roaming about very early in the morning.
