Do you work in a tech job? And live under a rock? Then you might not have heard this.

This song. Is. So. Funny. It makes me laugh so hard I cannot breathe. When it first came out last year, it made the rounds of all the techies I know, but just in case you missed it, you have to check out “Code Monkey” by Jonathan Coulton. Below is a snippet of it’s greatness, but you have to hear the music too.

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 diligent

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

Prefer zombies? Try Re Your Brains. It’s about zombies in an office park. Prepare to wet yourself. And if you don’t think these songs are funny, then just console yourself by thinking of the sad, pathetic life I lead ;)
