Daddy's in the shed and the shed is on fire |
Lyrics"Daddy's in the Shed (And the Shed's on Fire)"By Yves Stilmant © 2025 Verse 1A Daddy said, "I'll fix the mower today" Four hours later, there's smoke and flames He rigged a still with duct tape and pride Now the shed's glowin' red on the countryside Verse 1B Granny screamed, "You dang ol' fool!" While Grandpa's yellin' "This is Biden's rule!" The chickens fled, the cat caught fire And Daddy's in there yellin', "It's just a dryer!" Pre-Chorus We got chaos blowin' through the yard And Aunt Jean's prayin' to a mason jar The neighbors called, the preacher came But Daddy swears he's got it "tamed" Chorus Daddy's in the shed and the shed's on fire Says, "I got this," standin' in the pyre Granny's throwin' buckets with a bad back twist Grandpa's screamin' 'bout a government list Smoke's risin' up to the satellite dish And the dog just barfed in the goldfish If this ain't love, then it's pure desire-- Daddy's in the shed, and the shed's on fire Verse 2A He built it with scrap from a trampoline A grill, three fans, and a washing machine He said, "It's efficient and mostly legal" Now we're one spark short of a barnyard sequel Verse 2B Granny's in curlers with a garden hose Yellin' "Shut your trap, you half-baked doze!" Grandpa's tryin' to lasso the flames While Daddy's roastin' wieners, playin' games Pre-Chorus The fireman showed, but turned back fast Said, "Ain't no way we're fightin' that gas" Mama lit a candle for the Lord Then threw her sandal and nailed the door Chorus Daddy's in the shed and the shed's on fire Singin' Skynyrd like a gospel choir The moonshine's boilin', the roof caved in And Granny's chuckin' pans from the kitchen bin The kids got marshmallows, the goat's inspired Now the rooster's crowin' like he just got hired It's a family picnic meets funeral pyre-- Daddy's in the shed, and the shed's on fire Bridge (spoken & sung) (SPOKEN:) Gramps: "This here's a government weapon test!" Granny: "It's YOU who married that mess!" (SUNG:) He's still inside with a garden rake And half a pie on a paper plate Final Chorus Daddy's in the shed and the shed's still flamin' But he's got moonshine, and he ain't complainin' The fire truck left, said "Y'all are nuts" While Daddy's holdin' beer and peanut M&Ms in cups If chaos had a zip code sign Ours would be burnin' just fine So if you smell smoke and hear a choir-- Daddy's in the shed... and the dang thing's on fire ?? Tag (crowd chant): "He's in the shed! It's burnin' bright! Still grillin' burgers in the middle of the night!" ?? |
