I actually don't understand this. E-L-I-5?
Pretty sure it's a reference to Van Halen's Hot For Teacher
Okay, that would explain why I don't know it.
That was a joke in reference to the Van Halen album 5150, which in fact did not include the track Hot for Teacher, as that was on the album 1984, and I was being facetious.
5150 is also the name of Eddie (and subsequently Wolfgang) Van Halen's recording studio where 1984 and many other seminal albums were recorded.
The studio was named after Section 5150 of the Welfare Code of California which allows officers or mental health professionals to detain individuals for involuntary psychiatric holds.
