And the sign says, 'Long hair freaky people need not apply'
So I put my hair under my hat and I went in to ask him, why?
He said, 'You look like a fine outstanding young man, I think you'll do'
So I took off my hat I said, 'Imagine that, huh me working for you'

Oh, signs, signs, everywhere there's signs
Blocking up the scenery, breaking my mind
Do this, don't do that, can't you read the sign?

And the sign says, 'Anybody caught trespassing will be shot on sight'
So I jumped the fence and I yelled at the house
Eh, what gives you the right?
To put up a fence and keep me out or to keep mother nature in
If God was here He'd tell it to your face, man you're some kind of sinner

Signs, signs, everywhere there's signs
Blocking up the scenery, breaking my mind
Do this, don't do that, can't you read the sign?

Oh but say now, 'Mister, can't you read?
You got to have a shirt and tie to get a seat
You can't watch, no you can't eat
You ain't supposed to be here'

And the sign says, 'You gotta have a membership card
To get inside', uuh

And the sign says, 'Everybody welcome, come in kneel down and pray
But then they passed around a plate at the end of it all
And 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 thinking about me, I'm alive and doing fine'

Signs, signs everywhere, there's signs
Blocking up the scenery, breaking my mind
Do this, don't do that, can't you read the sign?

Signs, signs everywhere, there's signs
Blocking up the scenery, breaking my mind
Do this, don't do that, can't you read the sign?
