Code monkey get up get coffee

Code monkey go to job

Code monkey have boring meeting

With boring manager rob

Rob say code monkey very dilligent

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

Code monkey like fritos

Code monkey like tab and mountain dew

Code monkey very simple man

With big warm fuzzy secret heart

Code monkey like you

Code monkey hang around at front desk

Tell you sweater look nice

Code monkey offer buy you soda

Bring you cup, bring you ice

You say no thank you for the soda cause

Soda make you fat

Anyway you busy with the telephone

No time for chat

Code monkey have long walk back to cubicle he sit down pretend to work

Code monkey not thinking so straight

Code monkey not feeling so great

Code monkey like fritos

Code monkey like tab and mountain dew

Code monkey very simple man

With big warm fuzzy secret heart

Code monkey like you

Code monkey like you a lot

Code monkey have every reason

To get out this place

Code monkey just keep on working

See your soft pretty face

Much rather wake up, eat a coffee cake

Take bath, take nap

This job fulfilling in creative way

Such a load of crap

Code monkey think someday he have everything even pretty girl like you

Code monkey just waiting for now

Code monkey say someday, somehow

Code monkey like fritos

Code monkey like tab and mountain dew

Code monkey very simple man

With big warm fuzzy secret heart

Code monkey like you
