- Water under the bridge
When you are assured that everything is fine because "It's water under the bridge," remember that the water may contain piranha, electric eels, sharks, alligators, and/or used syringes, and no one has checked the structural integrity of the bridge in a long, long time. Also, recently someone has been pushing people over the side.

The song promptly went to #1. Then the Earth exploded.
