Man Who Got No Sign Lyrics - Shel Silverstein

Ko-we-ha Gemini Jim taw Scorpio Salo 

Taw sejno-nej-o-to-kono o-ha-na-shi-te-saw 

There was Gemini Jim and Scorpio Sal they was livin' by the Golden Gate 

Freezin' their nose and wearin' leather clothes and dealin' every way but straight 

They had a Leo dog and a Capricorn cat and everything was goin' fine 

Until into their life on a moonless night come the man who got no sign 

He roared right in like some evil wind and he rolled himself a righteous smoke 

As the thunder scrashed and the lightenin' flashed he took a toke and a spoke 

Said he was born in an astrological warp when the stars refused to shine 

On the cusp of Nowhere and Nevermore he's the man that got no sign 

Then he told a story of an endless search to find his missin' part 

And Scorpio Sal she smiles at him tries to do his chart 

But the Pisces Ben who was Jim's best friend aaid man you must be blind 

You better grab your knife and take the life of the man who'd got no sign 

And so it happened and his blood run soaked the ground 

The arrest was made by Sheriff Slade and Aquarius thru and thru 

But the jailer was a Sagittarius so he beat Jim black and blue 

And then they dragged him up to the courthouse stairs they said Jim how do you plea 

He said man the moon's in Virgo so the blame don't fall on me 

Well the jury all was the Libras so you know they was more than fair 

But the lawyer was an Aries and an Aries just don't care 

The judge he was a Cancer and Cancers have no friends 

But the hungman was a Taurus and that's where the circle ends
