Cover art for Lights Out lyrics by Mindless Self Indulgence

I think that the meaning of this song is quite simple. Just look at the tabloids in the news today.. When a celebrity or even someone who isn't quite that famous yet, does something off-key, vulgar or violent, they become famous... even if it is for 15 minutes of fame. On the flipside society finds celebrity-star violence entertaining and feeds their brain by reading magazines that have headlines of such acts.
