Little Boxes Lyrics


Little boxes on the hillside
Little boxes made of ticky-tacky
Little boxes on the hillside
Little boxes all the same
There's a pink one and a green one and a blue one and a yellow one
And they all are made 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 there's doctors and lawyers and business executives
And they're all made out of ticky-tacky
And they all look just the same
And they all play on the golf course
And drink their Martini's 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 are put in boxes
And they come out all the same
And the boys go into business
And marry and raise a family
In boxes made of ticky-tacky
And they all look just the same
There's a pink one and a green one and a blue one and a yellow one
And they all are made of ticky-tacky
And they all look just the same
