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!", 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?

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

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?

{Yes! Some old song, called "Signs Signs"
I wish we did write that one, but we didn't
Wow! Alright}
