The Lumberjack Song
The Lumberjack Song, written by Eric Idle, Terry Jones, and Fred Tomlinson, is perhaps the best loved Python song.  It first appeared in episode nine of Monty Python's Flying Circus and sung by Michael Palin backed up by John Cleese, Graham Chapman and the Fred Tomlinson singers as Mounties.
(Spoken Intro)
I never wanted to do this in the first place...
I wanted to be... A LUMBERJACK! 
Leaping from tree to tree as they float down the mighty rivers of British Columbia!  The Larch! The Pine! The Giant Redwood!  The Sequoia!  The Little Whopping Rule Tree! 
With my best girlie by my side we'd sing, sing, sing!

(Singing)


Oh, I'm a lumberjack and I'm okay.
I sleep all night and I work all day

Chorus: He's a lumberjack and he's okay,
              He sleeps all night and he works all day.

I cut down trees, I eat my lunch
I go to the lavarty.
On Wednesdays I go shopping
And have buttered scones for tea.

Mounties: He cuts down trees, he eats his lunch
                He goes to the lavarty
                On Wednesdays he goes shopping
                And has buttered scones for tea

Chorus

I cut down trees, I skip and jump,
I like to press wild flowers
I put on women's clothing
And hang around in bars

Mounties: He cuts down trees, he skips and jumps
He likes to press wild flowers
He..... puts on womens clothing?
And HANGS AROUND IN BARS???

Chorus

I cut down trees, I wear high heels,
Suspendies and a bra!
I wish I'd been a girlie,
Just like my dear papa!

Mounties: He cuts down trees, wears high heels,
Suspenders and..... a bra???
(The mounties are quite confused, stop singing, and start shouting things like  "What's this?" "Wants to be a girlie??" "Poofter!")

Girl (crying): Oh Bevis, and I though you were so
rugged!
And now for something completely different... The Lumberjack Song, in German.
