Little Boxes - Richard Bliwas

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 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 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 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're all made out of ticky tacky And they all look just the same

Someday's I feel that I am bigger than most I don't have the ego, I'm not one to boast It is just I see the people As part of the whole It is just, I see the people in a big fish bowl We are boxes on boxes On boxes on boxes, haunted And we have things we don't need We are with and without in the road So damn tired of being a lady So damn bored of being a girl Then again If we look at it plainly I'd feel the same if I were a boy It is not the weather for the market today We just feel the pressure, the pressure of days We are sat upon a table where the food is hot We'll be talking for hours and we'll eat the whole lot We are boxes on boxes On boxes on boxes, haunted And we have things we don't need We are with and without in the road So damn tired of being a lady So damn bored of being a girl Then again If we look at it plainly I'd feel the same if I were a boy If I were a boy Life is but a dream I am just asleep Floating Tell me what you need I am on my knees Floating Beautifully free Life is good to me Floating Da-da-da-da-dum La-da-da-da-dum Floating
