Answer 2

Five Man Electrical Band - Signs Lyrics
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-oh-oh

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' would be shot on
sight
So I jumped on the fence and-a 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"

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'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 got to have a membership card to get inside
Ugh!

[Lead Guitar]

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."
Wooo!

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
Sign, sign

Signs (1972 song)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jump to: navigation, search
Signs is a 1972 song that greatly popularized the somewhat unknown Canadian rock group simply dubbed Five Man Electrical Band, who wrote and performed it for their second album, Good-byes and Butterflies. The lyrics explain how our world is filled with simplistic literature and express many difficult situations that the common man experiences.

"Signs" was originally released in 1970 as the B-side to the unsuccessful single "Hello Melinda Goodbye". Re-released in 1971 on the A-side, "Signs" reached number 3 on the Billboard charts.

The song was famously covered and recorded live by Tesla for their Five Man Acoustical Jam album in 1991, peaking at number 8 on the Pop charts.

The opening line of the song was sampled by Fatboy Slim for his song "Don't Let The Man Get You Down", from his Palookaville album.
