Biografía:
Malvina Reynolds (1900-1978), una artista defensora de los derechos de la mujer y activista social.
Dicen por ahí que, allá en los inicios de los 60, Malvina y su marido iban camino de San Francisco y al pasar cerquita de Daly City se toparon con uno de esos barrios residenciales donde parece que la vida fluye plácidamente a pesar de esconder las más peores miserias humanas. Malvina pasó el volante a su marido y se puso a escribir “Little Boxes”.

It isn't nice...
[Verse]
C
It isn't nice to block the doorway
G
It isn't nice to go to jail
C
There are nicer ways to do it
G
But the nice ways always fail
C Em Am
It isn't nice, it isn't nice
Dm G
You told us once, you told us twice
C F C
But if that is Freedom's price
G C F C
We don't mind
[Verse]
G C
It isn't nice to carry banners
G
Or to sit in on the floor
C
Or to shout our cry of Freedom
G
At the hotel and the store
C Em Am
It isn't nice, it isn't nice
Dm G
You told us once, you told us twice
C F C
But if that is Freedom's price
G C F C
We don't mind
[Verse]
G C
We have tried negotiations
G
And the three-man picket line
C
Mr. Charlie didn't see us
G
And he might as well be blind
C Em Am
Now our new ways aren't nice
Dm G
When we deal with men of ice
C F C
But if that is Freedom's price
G C F C
We don't mind
[Verse]
G C
How about those years of lynchings
G
And the shot in Evers' back?
C
Did you say it wasn't proper
G
Did you stand upon the track?
C Em Am
You were quiet just like mice
Dm G
Now you say we aren't nice
C F C
And if that is Freedom's price
G C F C
We don't mind
[Verse]
G C
It isn't nice to block the doorway
G
It isn't nice to go to jail
C
There are nicer ways to do it
G
But the nice ways always fail
C Em Am
It isn't nice, it isn't nice
Dm G
But thanks for your advice
C F C
Cause if that is Freedom's price
G C F C
We don't mind, we don't mind
