Recorded live at the Paul Gleason Theater 9-12-07

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

  • does he have a cd

  • He has 6 so far. Four of them are Thing-a-week 1-4. He released a new song every week for a year. This song was one of them. Goto his site jonathancoulton(dot)com you can either buy MP3's or CD's through CDBaby.

  • If you can't afford to buy them now, you can go back through his archives and find the days the songs were posted. He released them for free then, and he left it that way. His songs are free to give away, share with friends etc.

    But if you can, Donate money so he can keep the music coming.

  • hey! did he do the song for the show 'code monkey' ? that show is funny!

  • This song was released about a year before the show was created. They used it because it fit well.

  • What the fuck is he even talking about?

  • code monkey the best

  • Paul+Storm on harmony with JoCo out front sounds sweet.

  • Grabbin Pills

  • This is one of my favorite songs of his.

  • the back up singer on the left is my neighbor! :D Paul Suborin. :D :D :D :D I loves dis song

  • Yea they should use capos and play the corrisponding chords along with his or something.

  • I think paul and storm should play their guitars along with JoCo and do some kind of acompanyment to the original chord progression throughout the song. It would bring more attention. Plus I bet their bored when they just play the shakers.

  • Does his guitar sound way out of tune at the beginning?
