Malvina Reynolds / Little Boxes
Little boxes on the hillside, little boxes made of tickytacky
Little boxes on the hillside, 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.
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 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 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.
P.S.: si tratta del testo della sigla di Weeds, una serie televisiva americana molto divertente (per i miei gusti). Uno spaccato dissacratorio e politicamente scorretto
(oltre che volgare, in molti punti) della borghesia americana ambientato nel classico quartiere residenziale... consigliato! :)
