DESCRIPTION:
In your job at the coop
There’s a lot under your control
Capital credits and the budget
HR and payroll
You gotta be a mind reader
A gatekeeper, an incident commander
A storm coordinator
A holiday party planner

Working at the COOP
The Electric COOP
We do this everyday
NRECA

Folks’ll get a brand new fridge
Most efficient you can buy
Then they keep their old one stocked with beer
And are mad when their bill’s still high

Copper thieves and all kinds of critters
Short circuit the lines
So you send a drone to assess
And it get shot out of the sky

Another day at the COOP
The Electric COOP
We do this everyday
NRECA

Members who think smart meters
Are just for spying by the government
You gotta know a foreign language
Explaining complex bills to them

Apps and social media
You keep track of it on your own
But everyone on the board uses AOL
And flipphones

BTU, C02
DC, DG, IOU
EPA, FTC
EMF, ESP

NIMBY, FERC
HVAC, NERC
NISC,

Hi there! If you're new around these parts, welcome. I'm Jonathan Mann. I write a song every single day, and I've been doing that for the last 7+ years.

Through sick days, tired days, days with no inspiration, the death of my grandma, the breakup of a 5 year long relationship, the marriage to my wife and the birth of our son - I've never missed a day. This is my life's work.

You can see my most current song, as well as songs from year's past over at http://songaday.org
