The Shed Song Lyrics

von Buddy Wasisname and the Other Fellers

Where I pick apart my chain saw and go to drink my beer
A couple of dozen games of darts, three or four times a year
Sort m'nuts and bolts, sharpen up a knife
Escape from the youngsters, the TV and the wife

In me shed, me shed, me lovely little shed
Might as well get a chesterfield, a toilet and a bed
It's the only place where I can go and tinker with my toys
Or go and find solitude with a bunch of ugly guys

When the smoke goes up the chimney, I signal to the boys
They all invent excuses and they show up like the flies
They stand around discussing the deeper things in life
Like the beauty of piston or the marvels of a trike

In me shed, me shed, me lovely little shed
Might as well get a chesterfield, a toilet and a bed
It's the only place where I can go and tinker with my toys
Or go and find solitude with a bunch of ugly guys

There are meaningful activities for men to all enjoy
Like the sharpening of a buck saw, or tying up some flies
To justify your shed time, keep quality in life,
You build a coffee table just to satisfy the wife

In me shed, me shed, me lovely little shed
Might as well get a chesterfield, a toilet and a bed
It's the only place where I can go and tinker with my toys
Or go and find solitude with a bunch of ugly guys

And I got to say she's beautiful, men will all agree
With her arse to the woodpile, she faces out to sea
An oil drum wood stove, a hole for the mouse
And a thousand little treasures that got banished from the house

In me shed, me shed, me lovely little shed
Might as well get a chesterfield, a toilet and a bed
It's the only place where I can go and tinker with my toys
Or go and find solitude with a bunch of ugly guys

If the wife ever threatens and forces me to choose
Between my marriage or the shed, either way I'm going to lose
Me tools and me buddies, or me wife and our bed
I guess I'll have to leave it all, and move into me shed

In me shed, me shed, me lovely little shed
Might as well get a chesterfield, a toilet and a bed
It's the only place where I can go and tinker with my toys
Or go and find solitude with a bunch of ugly guys
