The Lyrics
Being a modern Road Warrior, I travel a lot of interstates, including I-95. Thought of this while travelling in South Carolina. If you know the area, you might recognize the Pedro reference.
Not very funny, I admit. Just wanted to show an easy going simple slice of life.
Not very funny, I admit. Just wanted to show an easy going simple slice of life.
I’m just an old billboard
On south bound 95
I’ve touted greasy spoons
And Pedro’s southbound rides
Now I’m a mess
Just a testament to time
A sad impression
Indigestion by design
So call me, I’m available
I won’t charge you for lights
I hope you advertise on my sign
Aunt Fanny’s Arts and Crafts
John Deere is just a mile
Drink Diet Mountain Dew
Breakfasts with a smile
I don’t have L-E-D’s
Its paper glued tiles
Just ask for Bert
He’ll make it all worthwhile
Results, my friend, are bankable
We’ll custom make a rhyme
Oh please just advertise on our sign
We won’t display unmentionables
But to imply’s just fine
Just call and advertise on our sign
No price is disagreeable
Just sign away your life
We hope you advertise on our sign.
On south bound 95
I’ve touted greasy spoons
And Pedro’s southbound rides
Now I’m a mess
Just a testament to time
A sad impression
Indigestion by design
So call me, I’m available
I won’t charge you for lights
I hope you advertise on my sign
Aunt Fanny’s Arts and Crafts
John Deere is just a mile
Drink Diet Mountain Dew
Breakfasts with a smile
I don’t have L-E-D’s
Its paper glued tiles
Just ask for Bert
He’ll make it all worthwhile
Results, my friend, are bankable
We’ll custom make a rhyme
Oh please just advertise on our sign
We won’t display unmentionables
But to imply’s just fine
Just call and advertise on our sign
No price is disagreeable
Just sign away your life
We hope you advertise on our sign.

Yet another business affected by a bad economy. Here's some fives to put up in 10 foot high letters on your billboard.
Around here, we have billboards for a surf shop with girls in bikinis, which can be really distracting. But any billboard can be really distracting if you're driving. Anyway, I saw the sign, it said 5's
I see a big 555 on your sign!
Great job! 5's.
Thanks for the comments, guys. Really appreciate it. And if you're ever travelling in SC on 95 just south of NC, be sure to say hey to Pedro for me!
Incredible title switch and good lyrics. 555
(Just a little laugh: My security code was SKY. Not sure how to make a joke that ties in with your parody, though :-))
