Hee hee, ok I know I'm gonna need to explain this one because I know not everyone's as much of a Monty Python fan as I am. :giggle:

Alright, well, I'm sure you've probably heard the Pythons' "Lumberjack Song," or at least have heard of it. (You know: "I'm a lumberjack and I'm ok/I sleep all night and I work all day..." and so on) Now, the sketch that leads into the "Lumberjack Song" is actually a sketch in which Michael Palin plays a homicidal, blood-splattered barber who is afraid of hair and ends up killing his clients because of that fact. He laments that he never wanted to be a barber anyway; what he really wants is to be a lumberjack. Then he takes off his coat, revealing a red lumberjack-style shirt underneath, and launches into the intro for the song.

Sooo...now that everybody understands the connection, you can see why after seeing Sweeney Todd, I just couldn't resist making this. ;)

Yes I know I'm weird.

Sweeney Todd (c) Stephen Sondheim/Tim Burton

ETA: OMG, I cannot believe how many people are finding this funny! Seriously, when I posted this I thought nobody would even get the joke, let alone find it amusing. So the reaction has really blown my mind! Big thanks to everyone who's faved and commented. I guess I'm not as weird as I thought after all!

I'm a lumberjack and I'm OK
I sleep all night and I work all day.
I cut down trees, I skip and jump
I like to press wild flowers.

I'm a lumberjack and I'm OK
I sleep all night and I work all day.
I cut down trees, I wear high heels
Suspenders and a bra.
I wish I'd been a girlie, just like my dear Papa!! =D
