Not as eco-friendly as the original, but there you go. (The original being, in case anyone here doesn't know, "Spoon" by the incomparable Talis Kimberley.)

Young teens exploring an old haunted house
(You could turn on the lights)
Was that a vampire or was it a mouse?
(Or you could turn on the lights)

Turn on the lights, turn on the lights
Or you could turn on the lights

An old mining ship in the black depths of space...
Can't see a hugger in front of your face...
Dracula's castle fills victims with dread...
Only one colour and that's ketchup red...

Serial killer is somewhere in here...
Don't have to see him, I'll know when he's near...
Flashing my torch in the camera's eye...
If there was light then I'd not have to die...

Filmmakers all think that darkness is cool...
That's what they teach them at filmmaker's school...
But when there's nothing at all to be seen...
Why even bother to look at the screen...

Now I've just sat through the last Potter flick...
I'm getting tired of this asinine trick...
The pictures are better on the screen in my head...
So I'll just turn on the radio instead!

Turn on the lights, turn on the lights,
Or you could turn on the lights!
