When I was younger, my parents used to listen to the german group Kraftwerk. The song "Autobahn" went "Fahren, fahren, fahren an der Autobahn." I was told not to use swearwords, and was really shocked when they listened to this song! I thougt they were singing "Faen, faen, faen on the Autobahn."
-Faen is a norwegian word you can translate to something like "damn", "fuck it", or "hell"...
