The Lyrics
Hank Hill came on my TV
He sells propane and accessories
The patriarch, he takes the lead
Works hard to meet his family's needs
His wife Peggy, she's no southern belle
She cannot speak Spanish very well
Luanne lives in his den rent-free
Until she marries a man named Lucky
Bobby's his son and is big in the waist
Athletics cause him such pains
Prop comic is one of his life's goals
Seeking his fortune and fame
Drinking beer in the alley out back
Four guys share a twelve-pack
King of the Hill- it's on at five
King of the Hill- it's on at five
Boomhauer has his classic car tastes
Womanizing is his aim
Bill is a shell of a once proud man
His downfall is such a shame
Dale must have a ciggy to hold
Joseph's his son, or so he's told
King of the Hill- it's on at five
King of the Hill- it's on at five
King of the Hill- it's on at five
King of the Hill- it's on at five
He sells propane and accessories
The patriarch, he takes the lead
Works hard to meet his family's needs
His wife Peggy, she's no southern belle
She cannot speak Spanish very well
Luanne lives in his den rent-free
Until she marries a man named Lucky
Bobby's his son and is big in the waist
Athletics cause him such pains
Prop comic is one of his life's goals
Seeking his fortune and fame
Drinking beer in the alley out back
Four guys share a twelve-pack
King of the Hill- it's on at five
King of the Hill- it's on at five
Boomhauer has his classic car tastes
Womanizing is his aim
Bill is a shell of a once proud man
His downfall is such a shame
Dale must have a ciggy to hold
Joseph's his son, or so he's told
King of the Hill- it's on at five
King of the Hill- it's on at five
King of the Hill- it's on at five
King of the Hill- it's on at five
I wish the song had more verses so that I could also cover other characters sycg as Kahn, Mihn, Connie, Nancy, John Redcorn, Cotton, Buck Strickland, Hank's other co-workers, and his dog Ladybird, and others.

IMHO this is actually pretty much the right lenght for a parody to be enjoyed by someone who's not familiar with the/a show - or you could have wrapped the (excellent) title idea around the old children's game with the same name. Still kinda funny, but you're cramming to many syllables into many of the lines for it to be considered perfect pacing, which kinda made it a bummer to sing along with. I hesitated between 444 and 354 and settled for the latter.
