Sheds, Sheds & More Sheds!
My opening shed-centric lyrics:
Divine Comedy - "Something for the weekend" (woodshed)
The Sundays, who turned red at the memories of your shed...
what is it about sheds that is so naughty? My shed wasn't very naughty before I fixed the leaking roof, and it's still full of bits of broken glass and rotten planks...
Of course, there's "we pretend that we're shed" by "Shed Seven"
but look for the Sundays lyric by searchengining "sundays shed" and find links to Sheds, Sheds & More Sheds - better start now, duffers everywhere, if you want to be out of Shed Nirvana by 9pm...

Is the lack of recent songs referencing sheds due to the upsurge in garage music?
It's an interesting point Mike. I am minded to conduct a garage vs shed in song thread for tonight's show.
At the very least it would give me one less thing to worry about.
whither the garden hut?
"So leave your house come into my shed"Β
eat your heart out, Billy Ocean...
...then there's the Love Shack...
...kiss-up situation ahoy AGAIN!
Oooh, ooh, Mr Peeveley... I thought of one:
24 hour garage people by Half Man Half Biscuit.
"While you were out at the rollright stones, I came and set fire to your shed."
Ahh... sheet... it's got garage and shed in it, init? A one-all draw there.
Oooh, ooh, Mr Peeveley...Β
thank goodness for google, I was thinking Grape Ape there but it's the Hair Bear Bunch.
"In the Wonderland Zoo
There are more bears than two
There's Hair, Square and Fred
a.k.a. Little Ted
they've got a really cool shed!"
I haven't seen an episode of this since it was first on. That may mean I cannot recall the lyrics one hundred percent...
So...don't...yell... "Maud! Maud! Have you seen the extension lead cable reel anywhere?"...
And all the while on a shelf in the shed
Kenny's little creatures on display.
(Let's make the water turn black - Zappa & The Mothers)
Was the "tin roof" of the Love Shack in fact a Nissen hut? Nowadays a cheap kind of garage, (spelt differently!) but actually named after an American of Norwegian descent...
We don't have a shed at our 3rd floor flat, so would ask for the shed limitation to be extended to the allotment.
All I have got is "Can of Worms" by Tools You Can Trust and "Wheelbarrow Man" by Julian Cope.
And perhaps something by Nelson Riddle.
Cardiacs - She Is Hiding Behind The Shed.... obviously!!
The Turtles - She'd Rather be With Me .... less obviously...

Do we need a ruling on the eligibility of songs featuring people with lawnmowers on their heads as category "Secondary Shed Shanty"?
Anything by Bogshed?

'Come to the shed and we'll welcome you...' - from 'Blue Is The Colour' (Chelsea FC 1970?)
My brother, as a Leeds United fan, sang to the tune of The Mighty Quinn -
'You come in alive, you come out dead
You ain't seen nothing like the scratching shed'.
Re:tolhurst's Nissen hut in 'Love Shack' - I heard Jasper Carrott singing 'Nissen, do you wanna know a secret?' on a TV programme (in relation to Japanese car firms having the staff sing a company song at the start of each day)!
