Radiostations... all made out of tickytacky

The VIBE's new Top 40 Website:

And this one from an Indianapolis station:



I think it's very trendy. I got it on a CD of free fonts about five years ago.

Seriously, it just looks like a radio station logo. Like most jocks, sounding like disk jockeys. Jingles sounding like radio jingles everywhere. And now yet another KC top 40 station for that great 18-34 group. Stereotypes of today's soundalike FM radio. But a decent boomer station? Nope.

Little stations made out of ticky-tacky, and they all sound just the same.

1. Little boxes on the hillside,
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're all made out of ticky-tacky
And they all look just the same.

2. And the people in the houses
All go to the university,
And they all get put in boxes,
Little boxes, 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.

3. And they all play on the golf-course,
And drink their Martini 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,
And they all get put in boxes
And they all come out the same.

4. 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're all made out of ticky-tacky
And they all look just the same.
