Hello, This is a public service announcement from Men With Ven.
We’re not trying to worry you but y’know you need to look out for yourself, So here’s a bit of advice.
Go check your prostate

Don’t worry mate, don’t hesitate
Go check your prostate

Don’t bother wait, don’t leave it to fate.
A man’s prostate is about the size of a walnut.
It surrounds the tube that carries urine from the bladder.
Prostate fluid nourishes and protects sperm and forms the bulk of ejaculate volume.
However, if something goes wrong with the prostate it can effect a mans sex life, his long term health and can cause insurmountable medical complications;.
Go check your prostate

Don’t worry mate, don’t hesitate
Go check your prostate
Go check your prostate
Don’t bother wait, don’t leave it to fate.
If you have a trusted and willing partner prostate self exams are very simple to perform.
You just insert a finger into your rectum, bend the finger towards the belly button and you should be able to feel a lump that is similar in texture and and firmness to that of the flesh between your thumb and rest of your hand when you make a tight fist.

Down the shed
Down the shed
You’ll always see me smiling when I’m down the shed
Let’s go
Down the shed
Down the shed
A man is truly happy when he’s down the shed
I really am, I really am happy down there y’know?
It’s a little wooden piece of heaven
I put on the kettle, played some heavy metal
I made a coffee table for me Auntie Mabel
(very thoughtful Carl)
I watched Stoke vs. Leeds on a dodgy feed
I had a game of snap and took a well deserved nap
I got down and dirty with Squirty Gurty
Having toast for lunch, breakfast, brunch
I cut Bowie’s hair in this very chair
Me and me mate Glen grovin’ to Men With Ven
Down the shed
Down the shed
You’ll always see me smiling when I’m down the shed
(It’s what you’ve worked for all your life)
Down the shed
Down the shed
A man is truly happy when he’s down the shed
An Englishman’s home may be castle
But his shed is a self contained universe
Apparently bound by four wooden walls and a decent padlock
But metaphysically holding all the mystery of human existence
It was there I fell heavily in love with Tom Cleverly
I made a fresh brew - Do you want some too?
I built a rabbit hutch…. Thankyouverrrymuch
I planned a little pub crawl with Matt Percival
Down the shed
Down the shed
You’ll always see me smiling when I’m down the shed
(Funnily enough I don’t get a phone signal down the shed)
Down the shed
Down the shed
A man is truly happy when he’s down the shed
Uma Thurman taught me german down the shed
I worked on me Harley with Salvador Dali down the shed
I told The Missus I’m working but really I’m shirking down the shed
I burnt off my warts as I watched Sky Sports
Had some cheese and pickle and some slap and tickle
Peace, Happiness, Love - it’s all about that down the shed
The hedgehogs and the mice all agree it’s very nice down the shed
Only fifty square feet but it’s the envy of the street down the shed
I put up a shelf all by myself
Down the shed

On our 5th anniversary you bought me a dust buster for the kitchen units (oh yeah…)
Then a food processor (yep)
Not good (really?)
Then a mower (lovely)
Why? (well it’s not going to mow itself is it?)
A mat to kneel on when gardening (it was top of the range)
And a coffee machine that only you use (oh the coffee machine yeahhh)
(Oh Darling,
You know I love ya
I love to buy you pretty things
From Argos...
On offer...
With coupons..)
When are you going to grow up?
Whenever you walk into a room you move because I know you’ve been sat there drinking beer for far to long.
(Well where do you want me to drink it then really?)
When are you going to grow up?
You don’t clear up your dirty washing. When are you going to start ironing and walking the dog and go to work?
(i’m self-employed)
When are you going to grow up?
Every time you go out with Dave and Bill the beer cans are still in the living room and the pizza’s on the floor and the dogs been bloody sick
(Well, he don’t like chillis)
When are you going to grow up?
The lawn does need moving and the towels need folding and stop pinching my friends bottoms!
Y’got me there
Y’got me there
I won’t do it again I promise I swear
I never should have said I had nothing to declare
You really got me there
Y’got me there
Y’got me there
I bought y’ sister sexy underwear
I called your mother a slag and I thought you wouldn’t care
You really got me there
When are you going to grow up?
(well alright, you’ve got a point.. )
Mm hm..
(I made a few mistakes)
A few?
(fair enough)
(I think we should have a quiet night in)
Ahh.. That would be nice
(…watch The Great British Bake Off)
Oh Lovely…
(and maybe)
What?
(Y’know… bake a cake)
Yes!
(If you know what I mean)
mmm… I think i do

The Worst Christmas Ever
03:06
|

Grandma lost her teeth
She was blowing the trombone
She found it a skip
As she was walking home
Dad went to pick her up
But one of his tyres was flat
Mum got so distracted
She tumble dried the cat
Then the Christmas tree caugh fire
The presents went up in smoke
We couldn’t buy another thing
Cos we were stony broke
Me mum said it’s the thought that counts
Aunty Val began to blub
So Uncle Keith said, ‘blow this!
I’m going down the pub.’
It was the worst Christmas ever
No turkey, no crackers, no beer
It was the worst Christmas ever
Since last year
The tropical fish were boiled alive
The dog pissed on the twiglets
Instead of stuffing in the bird
Me mum left in the giblets
The sherry was like vinegar
The gin was more like bleach
Grandad sang the ‘The Red Flag’
And ruined the Queens Speech
The neighbors had gone away
On holiday to Crete
But they left a CD of Susan Boyle
Playing on repeat
Our sister Mary and her kids
Drove us up the wall
The dog ate some of Granddad's pills
And pebble dashed the hall
It was the worst Christmas ever
No turkey no crackers no beer
It was the worst Christmas ever
Since last year
It was the worst Christmas ever
A lot of grief and not a drop of good cheer
It was the worst Christmas ever
Until next year
The heating, the telly
The fridge all went on the blink
And Uncle Keith got off his face
And puked Mary’s mink
So auntie threw the gravy boat
All over Uncle Keith
We cut into the Christmas pud
And there were Grandma’s teeth
It was the worst Christmas ever
No turkey no crackers no beer
It was the worst Christmas ever
Since last year
It was the worst Christmas ever
A lot of grief and not a drop of good cheer
It was the worst Christmas ever
Since last year
Until next year
Same every year
Happy new year.
