Lyrics for Stop Signs

Somehow I always see the stop sign first. Why is it, I wonder? What gives me the clarity, the insight, the knowledge that it's time to move on At first it's always the little things The cute winks that soon become self-conscious and contrived The messy hair that once seemed to be soeshingly natural The hips that move so seductively beneath a dress that once revealed somehow droop, spread and quiver, motivating my eyes to look away He sees a sign from God But it breaks my heart He sees a sign from God You're taking it too hard I saw this movie one time called "Imitation of Life" The movie was kind of shitty, but I love the title He sees a sign from God It's time for me to part It's time for me to party
