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 upstandin' young man
I think you'll do
So I took off my hat and said, imagine that
Huh, me workin' for you
Whoa
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'
Will be shot on sight
So I jumped on the fence and I yelled at the house
Hey! What gives you the right
To put up a fence to keep me out
But to keep mother nature in?
If God was here, he'd tell you to your face
Man, you're some kind of 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?
Now, hey you, mister, can't you read?
You got to have a shirt and tie to get a seat
You can't even watch, no, you can't eat
You ain't supposed to be here
The sign said, you've got to have a membership card
To get inside
Uh
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
Woo!
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
