Malvina Reynolds: Song Lyrics and Poems

      Little boxes on the hillside,
      Little boxes made of ticky tacky,¹
      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 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 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.

      Little boxes on the hillside,
      Little boxes made of ticky tacky,¹
      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 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 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.

Concrete jungle

aroles:

No sun will shine in my day today (no sun will shine)
The high yellow moon won't come out to play (won't come out to play)
I say darkness has covered my light (and has changed)
And has changed my day into night
Where is the love to be found?
Won't someone tell me cos life (sweet life)
Must be somewhere to be found
Instead of concrete jungle (now, now)
Where the living is hardest
Concrete jungle (now, now)
Man, you've got to do your best, oh yeah

No chains around my feet but I'm not free, oh
I know I am bound here in captivity
And I've never known what happiness is, yeah
I've never known what sweetness is, still
I'll be always laughing like a clown
Won't someone help me cos I (sweet light)
I've got to pick myself from off the ground, yeah
In this concrete jungle (now, now)
I say what do you've got for me now? (concrete jungle) Oh!
Concrete jungle (now, now)
How won't you let me be now (concrete jungle)
Yeah, oh now
I said that life (sweet life) must be somewhere to be found, oh
Instead of concrete jungle
Illusion, confusion (concrete jungle)
Eh, concrete jungle
You name it, we've got it in concrete jungle now
Eh, concrete jungle (now, now)
What do you've got for me now?

comme s'il en pleuvait

Mots doux et billets

De rigueur

Intrigues enflammées

Comme s’il en pleuvait

Devant ma porte

Pretendants et jeunes premiers

Comme S’il en pleuvait

Nuées de diamants,

Poemes posés sur mon chevet

Comme S’il en pleuvait

Des présents chaque jour

Comme S’il en pleuvait

De l’amour

Comme s’il en pleuvait

A toi qui me vois ,mignonne ,

Mains tendues, genoux fangeux

Ne prends pas garde à ma mise

Et sur l’heure jouons franc-jeu

Jadis ici j’etais reine

Et les yeux de ces messieurs

Sur mon aimable personne

Se perdaient cela t’étonne ?

Roses tremieres et

jolis coeurs

Les soirs de premiere

Comme s’il en pleuvait

Nuées de diamants,

Poemes posés sur mon chevet

Comme S’il en pleuvait

Des soupirants et des atours à en décéder si tu savais

Comme s’il en pleuvait

Des présents chaque jour

Comme s’il en pleuvait

De l’amour

Comme s’il en pleuvait

Le desir, l’ivresse, la lune

Mignonne tout m’etait du

Par un revers de fortune

Voilà que j’ai tout perdu

Et de memoire d’Homme ou d’Apotre

Qui saurait dire à present

Que naguere comme nulle autre,

Je fascinais le tout venant ?

Mots doux et billets

De rigueur

Intrigues enflammées

Comme s’il en pleuvait

Devant ma porte

Pretendants et jeunes premiers

Comme S’il en pleuvait

Des soupirants et des atours

A en deceder si tu savais

Comme s’il en pleuvait

Des presents chaque jour

Plus que dix doigts n’en peuvent compter

La providence et la jeunesse

Ne durent jamais

Ca je l’ai appris à mes depends

Donne a present de quoi manger mignonne,

Gagne ton ciel et me sois bonne

Ma Jouvencelle, ma mignonne…

Mots doux et billets

De rigueur

Intrigues enflammées

Comme s’il en pleuvait

Devant ma porte

Pretendants et jeunes premiers

Comme S’il en pleuvait

Roses tremieres et

jolis coeurs

Les soirs de premiere

Comme s’il en pleuvait

Nuées de diamants,

Poemes posés sur mon chevet

Des soupirants et des atours

A en deceder si tu savais

Comme s’il en pleuvait

Des presents chaque jour

Plus que dix doigts n’en peuvent compter

You Know I'm No Good lyrics

Meet you downstairs in the bar and heard
Your rolled up sleeves and your skull t-shirt
You say why did you do it with him today?
And sniff me out like I was Tanqueray

Cause you're my fella, my guy
Hand me your stella and fly
By the time I'm out the door
You tear me down like roger moore

I cheated myself
Like I knew I would
I told ya, I was troubled
You know that I'm no good

Upstairs in bed, with my ex boy,
He's in the place, but I cant get joy,
Thinking of you in the final throws, this is when my buzzer goes

Run out to meet your chicks and bitter
You say when we're married cause youre not bitter
There'll be none of him no more
I cried for you on the kitchen floor

I cheated myself
Like I knew I would
I told ya, I was troubled
You know that I'm no good

Sweet reunion, jamaica and spain
Were like how we were again
I'm in the tub youre on the seat
Lick your lips as I soak my feet

Then you notice lickle carpet burn
My stomach drops and my guts churn
You shrug and it's the worst
To truly stuck the knife in first

I cheated myself like I knew I would
I told ya I was troubled, you know that I'm no good
I cheated myself, like I knew I would
I told ya I was troubled, yeah ya know that I'm no good
