lyrics

(not named yet)

He built the shed in fourteen days and it is a good shed
Level, felted, square, and everything Dad had drawn
And now on Sunday mornings he takes a cup down there
And stands in the doorway and does absolutely nothing

Something he has not named (not named)
He is wanting something, not named
And he does not know it, not named
Not named

Not named yet, named yet, not named yet, named yet
Dad wanted a shed for nine years and never built it
Not named yet, named yet, not named yet, named yet
And my brother built it and now he wants the wanting back

(key change up)
I nearly told him in October. Had the whole thing ready.
And then I watched him standing there with the cup
and I understood that telling him would take it off him.

Not named yet, named yet, not named yet, named yet
Dad wanted a shed for nine years and never built it
Not named yet, named yet, not named yet, named yet
And my brother built it and now he wants the wanting back

(not named...)
