E5                             A5             E5
Little boxes on the hillside, little boxes made of ticky-tacky,
       E5            B5               E5             B5
Little boxes on the hillside, little boxes all the same.
          E5
There's a green one, and a pink one,
      A5               E5
And a blue one, and a yellow one,
            E5               B5
And they're all made out of ticky-tacky,
         E5        B5       E5
And they all look just the same.

        E5                        A5              E5
And the people in the houses all went to the university,
      E5                B5             E5                B5
Where they were put in boxes and they came out all the same.
            E5
And there's doctors, and there's lawyers,
            A5          E5
And there's business executives,
            E5               B5
And they're all made out of ticky-tacky,
         E5        B5       E5
And they all look just the same.

         E5                               A5                   E5
And they all play on the golf course and drink their martini dry,

          E5               B5               E5              B5
And they all have pretty children and the children go to school,
        E5
And the children go to summer camp,
    A5              E5
And then to the university,
           E5              B5
Where they all are put in boxes,
         E5        B5      E5
And they come out all the same.

        E5
And the boys go into business,
         A5                 E5
And they marry and raise a family,
   E5             B5
In boxes made of ticky-tacky,
         E5        B5       E5
And they all look just the same.
