    There were a few different leadins for the Lumberjack Song
    One was the petshop/dead parrot sketch:

    Another was the murdering barber sketch:

    don't know which one came first

    The barber came first since that is from the BBC show. The dead-parrot lead in is from the movie "Now For Something Completely Different" where the chaps redid all their famous sketches

    And when the goal is scored, and the announcer goes over each philosophers' individual reason as to what just happened, each going along with that one's own views . . . "And Marx claims it was offside."

    Which, of course, it was.
