Ground connection? Try removing the battery entirely from the circuit and test the lights but DO NOT START. If the lights go on, the battery may be REALLY fried.

Check you wires on the coil.
Did you leave your ignition switch on, it could have gone bad. All I can think of right now... |

Both cable connections at the battery. They may need to be cleaned if any sign of corrosion.
