Mary asks…

I’m fed up of singing “the lumberjack song”. What tunes do you sign when weilding your axe?

Mike answers:

“Mama, take this axe off of me
I can’t swing it anymore
it’s getting dark, too dark to see!
I feel like I’m choppin’ on heaven’s door!

Chop chop choppin’ on heaven’s door. (repeat)

“Mama lay this branch in the ground
I can’t trim it anymore.
A tree fell in the forest, and made a sound
Sounds like I’m choppin’ on heaven’s door.

“Chop chop choppin’ on heaven’s door. (repeat)

Mike answers:

I was always a huge Python fan and this is one of their best.
My favorites from the show were “Twit of the Year” and “How not to be Seen”
The Holy Grail still kills me.
“Can’t I have just a little peril????”
“No, No, much too perilous.”
Classic stuff.

Daniel asks…

What is “The Lumberjack song” about?

Mike answers:

It’s about a regular guy with a regular job who wants to realize his dream of being… A lumberjack! But he has a few issues that apparently stem from his dad. But the link below can explain it better than I can.

Donna asks…

need the words to the Monty Phython HE’S A LUMBERJACK song?

Mike answers:

I’m A Lumberjack – Monty Python

I’m a lumberjack and I’m OK
I sleep all night and I work all day
(He’s a lumberjack and he’s OK
He sleeps all night and he works all day)
I cut down trees, I eat my lunch
I go to the lavat’ry
On Wednesdays I go shopping
And have buttered scones for tea
(He cuts down trees…)
(He’s a lumberjack…)
I cut down trees, I skip and jump
I love to press wild flow’rs
I put on women’s clothing
And hang around in bars
(He cuts down trees…)
(He’s a lumberjack…)
I cut down trees, I wear high heels
Suspenders and a bra
I wish I’d been a girlie
Just like my dear papa
(He cuts down trees…)
(He’s a lumberjack…)

John asks…

Will you please stand on your head and sing “The Lumberjack Song”?

Please?
You guys are great. I’ll be back in five with a chamber orchestra,
a synthesizer, and a bazooka. Bazookas are for those who sing off-key!

That’s just lovely.
I’ll get you started. *Mi mi mi*

“I’m a lumberjack and I’m okay.

I eat brown grapes and I sleep in hay.”

Wait… wait! It’s ,uh,

“I’m a lumberjack and I eat spam
I really don’t know where I am”

Uh… you sing it.

Here’s the band. Get my feet tapping!

Mike answers:

Well, alright: “i’m a lumberjack & i’m OK ….”
