Ahh, Silk! My rebel g/f! Here's one for you.


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 working for you!"

Chorus:
Oh, a sign, a 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 trespassing 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 or to keep Mother Nature in
If God was here he'd tell it to your face, man you're some kind of sinner"

Whoa, signs, signs, 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

And the sign says you got to have a membership card to get inside, huh
*Solo* (chorus)
And the sign said everybody welcome come in, and kneel down and pray
But they passed around a plate, and at the end of it all 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 thinkin' 'bout me, I'm alive and doin' fine

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
Whoa, sign, sign, everywhere a sign
(chorus)

Sign, sign
(chorus)
