I used to think Guerilla Radio by Rage Against the Machine said "Lights up, we're on the radio", so when i heard it on the radio at night when i was trying to go to sleep, i would always get up and turn on the light. It got me in trouble because sometimes it kept me up and i fell asleep in class. Also, I told my dad that he was going to get arrested if he didnt turn on the headlights on when it played, the cops would come and arrest him... I was a dumb kid.
