Music based on “Little Boxes” by Malvina Reynolds. Lyrics © 2020 Unrecorded.
Little boxes on my lap top
little boxes in the gallery
little boxes, little boxes
little boxes all the day
Where the doctors and the lawyers
hold meetings during quarantine
in their boxes, little boxes
they all can have a say
Oh the students at the grade school
and also the university
are in boxes, little boxes
where they study every day
And the teacher mutes the students
so she can keep her sanity
oh the boxes, little boxes
thank God it’s Friday
Now the flustered folk singer
thinks the sound is horrible
in the boxes, little boxes
little boxes where he plays
And the spotlight doesn’t work right
‘cause ZOOM needs more megabytes
now the boxes, little boxes
are frozen or delayed
Little boxes on my lap top
little boxes in the gallery
little boxes, little boxes
little boxes all the day
