Signs
Lyricist:Les Emmerson
And the sign said, 'Long-haired freaky people need not apply' So I tucked my hair up under my hat and I went in to ask him why He said, 'You look like a fine upstanding young man, I think you'll do' So I took off my hat, I said, 'Imagine that, huh, me workin' for you' Whoa, oh, oh
Sign, sign, everywhere a sign Blockin' out the scenery, breakin' my mind Do this, don't do that, can't you read the sign?
And the sign said, ‽Anybody caught trespassin' would be shot on sight†So, I jumped on the fence and-a yelled at the house 'Hey, what gives you the right? To put up a fence to keep me out or to keep mother nature in If God was here, He'd tell you to your face, man, you're some kinda sinner'
Sign, sign, everywhere a sign Blockin' out the scenery, breakin' my mind Do this, don't do that, can't you read the sign?

And the sign said, 'Everybody welcome, come in, kneel down and pray' But when they passed around the plate at the end of it all I didn't have a penny to pay So, I got me a pen and a paper and I made up my own little sign I said, 'Thank you, Lord, for thinkin' 'bout me, I'm alive and doin' fine, wooâ€
Sign, sign, everywhere a sign Blockin' out the scenery, breakin' my mind Do this, don't do that, can't you read the sign?
Sign, sign, everywhere a sign Sign Sign, sign
