Who sings the song with the lyrics "long haired freaky people need not apply"?

It was originally recorded by a Canadian group called Five Man * Electrical * Band. It was released June 29, 1971 and went all the way to #3 on the Billboard national charts. It spent 18 weeks on the charts and in those days that was a pretty long run.

I still can't help but smile when I hear the part about the kid stuffing his long hair up under his hat and applying for a job. The boss says " you're fine, upstanding young man; I think you'll do ", then the kid lets his hair down and says " Imagine that, me working for you. "

That inspired me to write a short poem called Labels.

Labels,

They belong on cans and bottles on tables.

They don't belong on things other free

So don't try to put a label on me.

I was very young .

The song is Signs and it's been covered by many bands my fav is Tesla, originally recorded byThe Five Man Electrical Band)

And the sign says 'Long-haired freaky people need not apply'

So I put my hair up under my hat and I went in to ask him why

He said you look like a fine outstanding young man, I think you'll do

So I took off my hat, I said 'Imagine that, huh, me working for you'

[Chorus:]

Signs, signs, everywhere there's signs

******' up the scenery, breakin' my mind

Do this, don't do that, can't you read the sign

And the sign says 'Anybody caught trespassing will be shot on sight'

So I jumped the fence and I yelled at the house

Hey! What gives you the right!

To put up a fence and 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

[Chorus]

Oh, say now mister, can't you read

You got to have a shirt and tie to get a seat

You can't 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' - uh!

[Solo]

And the sign says 'Everybody welcome, come in, kneel down and pray'

But then they passed around a plate at the end of it all

And I didn't have a penny to pay

So I got me a pen and a paper and I made up my own ******' sign

I said, 'Thank you Lord for thinking 'bout me, I'm alive and doing fine', oh

[Chorus 2x]

Yes! Some old song, called 'Signs Signs', I wish we did write that one, but

We didn't - wow!
