# I beg to differ.
if you watch the video, that bloke singer asks with some shock 'you're WHAT?!' as clearly this pregnancy is a surprise. Now, the only sticking point is if the term came from said shed for writing and means only that, or if it became a slang term after the song... alas, we may never know. (unless there is a concise device for checking such things, something anybody could, for arguments sake, 'log on' to and discover, but the very thought sounds quite absurd, quite absurd indeed.)
