   the writer of this song is Matt Wall. I may have spelt his name wrong as I have only heard it.

   Jaja,

   I can’t say that I even own the rights to post the lyrics here as this song is quite likely someones copyrighted material. That having been said I offer the lyrics here in the hope that it will enhance people’s enjoyment of the song and that the owner will understand and support that.

   So, I can’t give you permission to reproduce something that’s not mine, but I wouldn’t stop you.

   The incomming search terms are part of the bsuite WordPress plugin. It’s wordpress exclusive but if you have some PHP skills you might be able to get an idea how Casey wrote it and modify it for your site.

   Good luck with the site.

   gosh! i almost ??? in my pants when I first heard it, this song is everywhere, my friends outside the US sent it to me. i heard in a local radio station here that the person who wrote it (Matt Wall?) is a contestant from the last season of american idol.

    The “My Cubicle” song parody was not written by Matt Wall, whoever he is. It comes from a radio comedy service called Morning Sidekick.

11. Jon Says:
    June 27th, 2006 at 12:04 pm

    Keith,

    Thanks for the info. Matt Wahl also contacted me recently to let me know he didn’t write the song, although he has written about cube life before (which is probably where the confusion comes from.)

    Is there anyone specific at Morning Sidekick who should be credited with this? It’s a great parody and I’m glad to finally give credit where credit is due!

    I sit in SOLITUDE
    I sang the song the song and thought it might be important to some of you’se. Thanks for the interest, it’s one of my favorites. I’m not the talented one who wrote it, but I’ll take credit for singing it. Thanks for sure

17. Jon Says:

    Jym,

    Thanks for the corrections. Someone had commented on my other article that they thought you had performed this and I was waiting for some confirmation on that.

    You did a great job on the vocals, especially emulating the style of the original!

    I’m guessing you don’t work in an office and probably didn’t enjoy the movie Office Space either.

    Still, everyone’s entitled to their opinion. I’m hoping the other 20,583 folks who have come to this story already enjoyed it a bit more. I know I did.

21. HiBunny! Says:
    July 6th, 2006 at 5:13 pm

    That’s right. I am entitled to my opinion. I loved Office Space (it was original, not a lame knock-off of an already terrible song), and I do work in an office.

    I guess that means my sense of humor is just BETTER than the 20,583 other folks!

22. Jym Says:

    on a positive note, thanks to Eileen. Who’da thunk all the way to Malaysia. My wife was just in Jakarta at the Java Jazz Fest. She liked it very much. Brought me back some Palm tree sugar. It’s very tasty.

    I’ve been searching for how to make a lyrics blog with WP 2.0 . and i found this blog. Can anyone suggest how to make a nice to navigate blog for song lyrics ? I can’t find any themes or plughins for lyrics category. Anyone please help me ?

28. Jon Says:
    July 9th, 2006 at 3:33 pm

    Learner,

    I wouldn’t recommend WordPress (or any other blog software) for a song lyrics site. The organization is all wrong. Blogs organize content by time and category, but everything sorts in reverse cronological order.

    Lyrics on the other hand you want to organize by artist and song title. You might also want to have a blog to announce new additions and/or featured songs, but I don’t think you want a blog for your content management.

    You might consider Mambo content management system. I haven’t used it but it seems to be the best-of-breed free CMS.

    Hope this helps!

    The song, as a parody, is intellectual property of Morning Sidekick. As such it is not public domain.

    The folks at Morning Sidekick have been very cool about me posting the song and even the lyrics for everyone’s enjoyment, but I have also made a considerable effort to give them proper credit.

    Morning Sidekick was (and I believe still is) giving this song away on their site with no expressed usage policy. If you’re going to use it for personal enjoyment I’d say go for it. Just make sure they get proper credit.

    If you are interested in using the song for broadcast or profit I would strongly recommend contacting the folks at Morning Sidekick for permission (their email is on their site.) They don’t bite, unless bitten first.

    Enjoy the song, but respect the writer and performers. Remember, it took time/effort/talent/money to make this happen.

    Hey Jon,

    Wanted to say thanks for the post and working to make everything “accurate.” I check in once in a while just to look at the Story pulse and to read the comments. What a gas! So… do you know French? Have you noticed all the home-made videos out there with the “My Cubicle” track as the theme? They are a real neat representation of creativity out there. Anyway, Thanks again… I think I’ll go grab a cuppa Jo.

    Jym,

    I’m afraid I don’t speak French, but I have noticed some funny videos
    with this song. The first time I heard the song I knew it was just a
    matter of time until someone made a video.

    I’m a musician myself (mostly guitar, but a bit of just about
    everything else) so I feel it’s very important to give proper credit,
    especially on such a good job.

    no one ever talks to me or looks me in the eye.

    Too funny, I mamage a dental office and was playing this when one of my adolescent patients started to sing “my testicles”…as my boss came around the corner! I’m so fired!!!

    Now that’s funny. I wonder how I’d make that song fly on morning radio? I have a definite mental image of the lyrics – unfortunately – I’m pretty sure the color blue would materialize somewhere in the chorus.

    [...] I was feeling kinda out of it this morning and I tell you honestly, if it wasn’t for commitment and lack of leave I would have stayed home today. Well on the way to work I was listening to FAME FM and the two morning host were up to their usual very entertaining chatter and then decided to play a song. It is a spoof of James Blunt’s “You’re Beautiful” entitled “My Cubicle” I never stop laughing for quite a while. How many of you 9 to 5′ ers can relate to this song? Go have a listen and brighten your day a little by clicking the link I made. Have great day all. [...]

    Wow!! That is an incredible tune. I’ve never heard Blunt’s tune (never heard of Blunt either for that matter). Someone emailed me this tune and I was blown away. This is a ‘stand alone’ tune that millions of people can relate to. I have passed this around to everyone I know. Who would have thought it was just a parody. This is beautiful, man. Well produced, VERY well sung. Incredible,

     Nobody would have thought that there would be 100 comments on this parody back in dec. when it was created. Let alone on one site. If any of you need or would like to contact me about this or any other music related issue, jymbri@sbcglobal.net. It’s a disposable account that can be eliminated if it gets too nutty. I don’t know computers or sites or blogs very well but – it may help. Jon, if you’d rather not have this posted here, by all means delete it. Thanks for all of your interest and I’ll look forward to hearing from you all.

     Pretty funny – I never worked in a cube so I actually prefer “It’s Bloody Cold” when it comes to Blunt parody, but this is good too! I have linked this to a friend of mine who is a cube denizen and she loved it. Scans, too, which is more than most do.

     Al,

     I have it on pretty good authority that this was written by Keith at Morning Sidekick Comedy. There has been quite a bit of speculation on this, but their site is the origin of the song so I’ll continue crediting them until there’s good evidence otherwise.

119. Jym Says:
     November 18th, 2006 at 1:11 pm

     Chuck? Who’s chuck? Who’s Al? Who’s humble and who’s not humble? I’m not catching on to this thread.

     The song is nice and its lyrics are very funny and entertaining. I liked the humor in the song. The music is nice also and relaxing. Although I listen to classical arabic music and like oriental instruments, I think that the music is nice and the guitar player is fine.

     this song reflects many people whose jobs are not satisfying enough. it is shouting out loud the truth about what people think about their jobs and how they behave at work. it’s a really cool idea to change the lyrics and personalize them so they reflect your life. i think that this song talks about the average worker who doesn’t have any motivation.
