Signs Lyrics

And the sign says
"Long-haired freaky people need not apply"
So I put my hair up 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"

Signs, signs, everywhere there's signs
Fuckin' up the scenery, breakin' 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
Hey! 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
Fuckin' up the scenery, breakin' my mind
Do this, don't do that, can't you read the sign

Oh, 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 got to have a membership card
To get inside" - uh!

(solo)

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 fuckin' sign
I said, "Thank you Lord for thinking 'bout me,
I'm alive and doing fine", oh

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

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