Code Monkey like Fritos…
… Code Monkey like Tab and Mountain Dew.
I’ve spent most of the day listening to Johnathan Coulton’s (of Skullcrusher Mountain and Baby Got Back fame) ultra-fine song, Code Monkey, and it’s quickly becoming my official anthem. I mean, with lyrics like:
Code Monkey get up get coffee
Code Monkey go to job
Code Monkey have boring meeting
With boring manager Rob
Rob say Code Monkey seem to work a lot
But his output stink
His code not “functional” or “elegant”
What do Code Monkey think?
Code Monkey think maybe manager want to write god damned login page himself
Code Monkey not say it out loud
Code Monkey not crazy, just proud
Well,you can see why I like it. Hell, “Code Monkey think maybe manager want to write god damned login page himself” has become my default response to all status inquiries on my current projects.
Oh, and, yes, it’s a love song. Get the song here, or join the torrent, and then go to Coulton’s page and throw money at him!
