In gardens and allotments it's known far and wide
A little bit of inside is brought to life outside
Don't know what it is yet? Let me be your guide
It's a place for tools that help you take
care of your garden, like a rake
I'll tell you now and no mistake
If you want to get ahead, get a shed
Lawn mower, creosote, flower pots
Perhaps a rack to dry shallots
I'll tell you again in case you forgot
If you want to get ahead, get a shed
Gardening gloves and watering can
Secateurs made in Japan
Bird food, seeds and bean shoot canes
Somewhere to shelter when it rains
Nuts and bolts and screws in jars
Bits and pieces off old cars
A raincoat with a broken zip
Items destined for the tip
Like a broken clock or a child's bed
Please remember what I've said
If you want to get ahead, get a shed
