Little boxes





"Little boxes on the hillside,

Little boxes made of ticky tacky

Little boxes on the hillside,

Little boxes all the same,

Theres a green one & a pink one

And a blue one & a yellow one

And they are all made out of ticky tacky

And they all look just the same.


And the people in the houses

All went to the university

Where they were put in boxes

And they came out all the same

And theres doctors & lawyers

And business executives

And they are all made out of ticky tacky

And they all look just the same.


And they all play on the golf course

And drink their martinis dry

And they all have pretty children

And the children go to school,

And the children go to summer camp

And then to the university

Where they´re put in boxes

And they come out all the same.


And the boys go into business

And marry & raise a family

In boxes made of ticky tacky

And they all look just the same,

Theres a pink one & a green one

And a blue one & a yellow one

And they are all made out of ticky tacky

And they all look just the same."
