Signs

Who came up with Keep off the grass? How then does it get mowed? And then that obnoxious sign; STOP? But nothing to tell you, GO. And then that silly sign ahead That states emphatically WATCH OUT FOR FALLING ROCKS But as you’re watching overhead You wreck and your car’s a flop And YIELD, oh what a waste…. As we just zoom right on past But the best one I’ve seen lately Was really a huge blast HANDICAP PARKING ONLY But no elevator to the second floor And I’d better sign off now As my fingers are sort of sore And you ain’t gonna read no more and I got to go to the store And I’m getting locked out of the door And I promise not to write anymore.
