Little boxes on the hillside, little boxes made of ticky-tacky
                     E             A             E7
Little boxes, little boxes, little boxes all the same
          A
There's a green one, and a pink one, and a blue one, and a yellow one
                            E7                   A        E        A
And they're all made out of ticky-tacky and they all look just the same

And the people in the houses all go to the university
And they all get put in boxes, little boxes 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 martini 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
And they all get put in boxes, and they all come out the same

And the boys go into business, and marry and raise a family
And they all get put in boxes, little boxes all 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
