Sign on the window says "lonely,"
Sign on the door said "no company allowed,"
Sign on the street says "why' don't own me"
Sign on the porch says "three's a crowd"
Sign on the porch says three's a crowd"

Her and her boyfriend went to California
Her and her boyfriend done changed their tune
My best friend said, "now didn' I warn ya
Brighton girls are like the moon,
Brighton girls are like the moon"

Looks like a-nothing but rain
Sure gonna be wet tonight on Main Street
Hope that it don't sleet

Build me a cabin in Utah
Marry me a wife, catch rainbow trout
Have a bunch of kids who call me "pa"
That must be what it's all about,
That must be what it's all about

    i agree about this song being about rejection, but why does the sign on the window say "lonely"? oh and the rhyme scheme of the third stanza is brilliant, i love it.
