And I didn't have a penny to pay
So I jumped the fence and I yelled at the house
You can't watch, no you can't eat
Signs, signs, everywhere there's signs
Do this, don't do that, can't you read the sign?
And the sign says, "Anybody caught trespassing will be shot on sight"
Do this, don't do that, can't you read the sign?
So I took off my hat I said, "Imagine that, huh me working for you"
Do this, don't do that, can't you read the sign?
Eh, what gives you the right?
To put up a fence and keep me out or to keep mother nature in
Blocking up the scenery, breaking my mind
You got to have a shirt and tie to get a seat
If God was here He'd tell it to your face, man you're some kind of sinner
Blocking up the scenery, breaking my mind
And the sign says, "Everybody welcome, come in kneel down and pray
So I got me a pen and a paper and I made up my own little sign
Blocking up the scenery, breaking my mind
Signs, signs everywhere, there's signs
He said, "You look like a fine outstanding young man, I think you'll do"
To get inside", uuh
You ain't supposed to be here"
And the sign says, "You gotta have a membership card
Blocking up the scenery, breaking my mind
Oh but say now, "Mister, can't you read?
I said, "Thank you Lord for thinking about me, I'm alive and doing fine"
But then they passed around a plate at the end of it all
Signs, signs everywhere, there's signs
Oh, signs, signs, everywhere there's signs
