It's not pointless, but needlessly silly: as part of the alarm system, in addition to the standard siren, the home audio system turns on and plays Rockwell's "Somebody's Watching Me" at full volume.

At 7pm on school nights, one of a number of versions of "Hushabye Mountain" is played, if music isn't already playing.
