Intro
Verse 1
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, upstanding young man, I think you'll do
So, I took off my hat, I said, imagine that huh, me, workin' for you. Whoa
Chorus
Sign, sign, everywhere a sign,
Blocking out the scenery, breaking my mind.
Do this, don't do that..can't you read the sign?
Verse 2
And the sign said anybody caught trespassing, would 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 or to keep Mother Nature in?
If God was here, He'd tell you to your face, Man, you're some kinda sinner
Chorus
Sign, sign, everywhere a sign,
Blocking out the scenery, breaking my mind.
Do this, don't do that can't you read the sign?
Bridge
Now, hey you, mister, can't you read?
You've 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
N.C.
Sign said you got to have a membership card to get inside ... uh!
Instrumental
Verse 3
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 thinking about me,
I'm alive and doing fine.
Chorus
Sign, sign, everywhere a sign,
Blocking out the scenery, breaking my mind.
Do this, don't do that..can't you read the sign?
Outro
Sign, sign, everywhere a sign.
Sign...
