Jonathan Coulton
"Code Monkey"

That is all.

[edit]
Ok, you want the story, you can have the story. I'm not the star of this one, just an innocent* bystander...

Set your wayback machines for the early 90's and zoom in on NW London to the offices of a now defunct but then well known software developer.
Focus on the receptionist, the utterly gorgeous, breathtakingly attractive, part time receptionist, part time model...
She's mouthwateringly beautiful just lounging at her desk, trouser stiffeningly delicious when undulating around the office and even The Duke Himself cannot keep his eyes focused entirely on the code infront of him.
Full well she knows the effect she has on the room full of mostly young, mostly male, almost entirely virginal code monkeys. The hint of mischief in her smile as she slowly peels back the skin of her lunchtime banana before slipping it between her moistened lips and taking that first slow lingering bite is not the only clue that she's deliberately playing to the crowd and lapping up the attention.
Swing the camera of the mind around to young Colin, the chap with his own theme song, "Colin, Colin the coder". Not a bad looking lad, good guy to share a beer with but so lacking in clue regarding the fair sex that even the other byte pushers roll their eyes at the clumsiness of his schemes and machinations.
Colin has decided to be handsome prince** to the fair lady and decides one day to wind his courage to the sticking point and actually ask her out. Kudos to him for setting his sights high, and more kudos to the lad for having the bravery to go through with his plan. Had he known but one thing he might have remained sat at his desk instead.
The day he chose to ask the girl out, the very time he chose, could not have been worse. He'd worked his way through the usual, "Hi, How're you doing", part of the conversation and, clenching his sphincters tight, drew breath to casually ask the girl out for a drink.

Just as her fiance sauntered through the door. Her tall, blonde, tanned, broad shouldered, catalogue model boyfriend. Freshly back from a photoshoot on a palm fringed beach somewhere in the glamourous parts of the world that mere code monkeys never ever get to see.

The entire building the crash and burn on that one...

*For certain values of innocent

Much as "That is all", "Nuff said" etc posts are annoying
I'm still giving you a clicky for the song.
