Lyrics - Signs by Five Man Electrical Band

"
Signs" as recorded by
Tesla
And the sign says "
No 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"
CHORUS:
Signs
Signs
Everywhere there's signs
Blocking up the scenery
Breaking up 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 sigh"
So
I jumped the fence and
I yelled at the house
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
CHORUS:
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 gotto have a membership card just to get inside"
Huh
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 paper
And
I made up my own little sign
I said
Thank you
Lord for thinking about me
I'm alive and doing fine
CHORUS:
CHORUS:--
Scribe
