Bands/Albums/Songs that were street signs?

I was just following a "Caution Horses" trailer (Cowboy Junkies album), which reminded me of Slow Children. Any other band names, albums, or songs that reference common signage? By which I don't mean something like "Los Angeles of course".

A newer one I saw for the band Minus the Bear called Fine + 2 points. I had no idea what that meant until I visited New York City and saw the street sign.

Not "street" signs per se, but how about:

Danger! High Voltage (Electric Six)
Stop (lots of artists)
Slippery When Wet (Bon Jovi)
Push (the Cure)
