Little boxes on the hillside<br>
Little boxes made of ticky tacky,
Little boxes made of ticky tacky<br>
 
Little boxes on the hillside<br>
Little boxes on the hillside,
Little boxes just the same<br>
 
There's a green one and a pink one<br>
Little boxes all the same.
And a blue one and a yellow one<br>
 
And they're all made out of ticky tacky<br>
There's a green one and a pink one
And they all look just the same<br>
 
<br>
And a blue one and a yellow one,
And the people in the houses<br>
 
All went to the university<br>
And they're all made out of ticky tacky
Where they were put in boxes<br>
 
And they came out all the same<br>
And they all look just the same.
There's a doctor and a lawyer<br>
 
And a business executives<br>
 
And they're all made out of ticky tacky<br>
And the people in the houses
And they all look just the same<br>
 
<br>
All went to the university,
''(Additional verses not included in Elvis' recording:)''<br>
 
<br>
Where they were put in boxes
And they all play on the golf course<br>
 
And drink their martinis dry<br>
And they came out all the same,
And they all have pretty children<br>
 
And the children go to school<br>
And there's doctors and lawyers,
And the children go to summer camp<br>
 
And then to the university<br>
And business executives,
Where they are put in boxes<br>
 
And they come out all the same<br>
And they're all made out of ticky tacky
<br>
 
And the boys go into business<br>
And they all look just the same.
And marry and raise a family<br>
 
In boxes made of ticky tacky<br>
 
And they all look just the same<br>
And they all play on the golf course
There's a green one and a pink one<br>
 
And a blue one and a yellow one<br>
And drink their martinis dry,
And they're all made out of ticky tacky<br>
 
And they all look just the same<br>
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 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.

lyrics for
Little Boxes

Little boxes on the hillside
Little boxes made of ticky tacky
Little boxes on the hillside
Little boxes 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

And the people in the houses
All went to the university
Where they were put in boxes
And they came out all the same
There's a doctor and a lawyer
And a business executives
And they're all made out of ticky tacky
And they all look just the same

(Additional verses not included in Elvis' recording:)

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 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
