Goodbye, Little Girl Code
(An ode to noding instead of coding,
sung to the tune of Goodbye, Yellow Brick Road)

When are they going to catch on,
When am I going to get fired?
I think I should have stuck to the facts
I should have gone and read the FAQ's

I know I can't node here forever,
I need my own PC,
I'm not an employee with her taskbook open
This girl's new, and noding all day.

So goodbye, timesheets and reams of code,
Where my manager eagle-eyed prowls
You can't drag me to your meetings,
I'm going back to E2.
Back to the roaming and dreaming snips,
At work I'm the slacker who nodes,
Oh, I've finally decided my future lies
Among the cheddar and nodes.

What do you think they'll do then
I bet this'll cost me my job,
It'll take me a couple of upvotes and Ching!ings
To set my on my feet again

Maybe I'll find a replacement
There's plenty of jobs to be found
and bosses, who ain't got a damn clue,
That I'm surfing and voting and proud.

So goodbye, Little Girl Code,
Where the dark side of Everything howls
You can't drag me into the flame wars,
I'm going back to my goal.
Back to the roaming and dreaming snips,
At work I'm the slacker who nodes
Oh, I've finally decided my future lies
Among the cheddar and nodes.

So goodbye, timesheets and reams of code,
Where my manager eagle-eyed prowls
You can't drag me to your meetings,
I'm going back to my nodes.
Back to the Lesbians, Monkeys, and Soy,
Back to a slacker who nodes,
Oh, I've finally decided my future lies
With cheddarbox, Chinging and nodes!
