Little Boxes

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're all made out of ticky-tacky
and they all look just the same.

and the people in the houses
all went to the university,
and they all were put in boxes,
and they came out all the same.
and there's doctors and there's 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 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 are put in boxes
and they come out 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 green one and a pink one
and a blue one and a yellow one
and they're all made out of ticky-tacky
and they all look just the same.
