We Shall Overcome

Little boxes on the hill side,
little boxes made of ticky-tacky
little boxes, little 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 all made of ticky-tacky 
and they all look just the same


And the people in the houses 
all went to the university
Where they all where put in boxes
little boxes all the same


And these doctors and these lawyers 
and business executives
and they all made 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 their children go to school


and the children go to summer camp
and then to the university
where 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 all made of ticky-tacky 
and they all look just the same
