Signs
Written by Les Emmerson
Performed by Five Man Electrical Band
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
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."
Oh, sign, sign everywhere a sign
Blocking up the scenery, breaking 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 you to your face,
Man you're some kind of sinner."
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
The sign said you've got to have a membership card to get inside
And the said "Everybody welcome, come in and kneal down to pray"
But when the passed around a 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
It said "Thank you, Lord, for thinking about me, I'm alive and doing fine."

The original version was done by the Five Man Electrical Band. In the eighties it was re-done by Tesla and now some country guy named Kenny has re-done it yet again.

that was a great old song recently re done..the original was done by "The Five Man Electrical Band"
If you want to find songs like this, and i do it all the time...Take a piece of the lyrics that you are sure of,..like here you might use "Blockin up the scenery", just PUT QUOTES around it and yahoo or google it. works almost every time, and you can most times find all the lyrics too.
