2007-09-06 · Hank · watch on YouTube · Everyday life · comedy performance

Hank performs a comic song, 'I'm Gonna Kill You', threatening an express-lane rule-breaker, an SUV-driving neighbour and noisy upstairs neighbours, then says he is not really angry and credits Katherine with the idea and several lines.

What is said

00:00:32 — Song 'I'm Gonna Kill You': the express-lane lady, the SUV neighbour, the loud upstairs neighbours

  • ★★★ Hank sings a comic song threatening to kill people who annoy him: an express-lane customer who argues over coupons, an SUV-driving neighbour, and noisy upstairs neighbours. (joke) — 00:00:32
  • ★★ In the song's SUV verse Hank tells a neighbour 'we're fighting a war' so he can drive his giant SUV home, and urges him to trade his H2 for a Honda Fit. (playful) — 00:01:31

00:03:31 — Hank isn't really angry; thanks to Katherine for help with the song; his voice is worn out; sign-off

  • ★★ After the song Hank says he is really not an angry person, but people just get on his nerves sometimes. (playful) — 00:03:31
  • ★★ Hank thanks Katherine for her help with the song, particularly for coming up with the idea and several of the lines. — 00:03:37 · Katherine Green
  • ★ Hank says singing like that has made his voice weak; he is not a bass and has to work for the low notes. (playful) — 00:03:43

Humor (dominant)

  • The express-lane lady argues over coupons and waits for her husband to bring a forgotten item; Hank snaps. — 00:01:11 > «Yeah, I'm gonna kill you and possibly your whole family, too.»
  • After threatening the express-lane lady with a Mortal Kombat fatality, Hank sings the refrain. — 00:01:26 > «I'm usually a very peaceful person but I'm gonna kill you.»
  • Hank's note to the neighbour who just bought a giant SUV: 'I hope you know that we're fighting a war' — 00:01:43 > «so you can get your fat ass home from the grocery store.»
  • At 3 a.m. the upstairs neighbours have friends over for late-night Red Rover. — 00:02:28 > «and now... yeah... they're practicing tap dance.»
