Christmas - I Want A Hippopotamus For Christmas lyrics

rate me

I want a hippopotamus for Christmas<br />

Only a hippopotamus will do<br />

Don't want a doll, no dinky Tinker Toy<br />

I want a hippopotamus to play with and enjoy<br />

<br />

I want a hippopotamus for Christmas<br />

I don't think Santa Claus will mind, do you?<br />

He won't have to use our dirty chimney flue<br />

Just bring him through the front door, that's the easy thing to do<br />

<br />

I can see me now on Christmas morning, creeping down the stairs<br />

Oh what joy and what surprise when I open up my eyes<br />

To see a hippo hero standing there<br />

<br />

I want a hippopotamus for Christmas<br />

Only a hippopotamus will do<br />

No crocodiles, no rhinoceroses<br />

I only like hippopotamuses<br />

And hippopotamuses like me too<br />

<br />

Mom says the hippo would eat me up, but then<br />

Teacher says a hippo is a vegeterian<br />

<br />

There's lots of room for him in our two-car garage<br />

I'd feed him there and wash him there and give him his massage<br />

I can see me now on Christmas morning, creeping down the stairs<br />

Oh what joy and what surprise when I open up my eyes<br />

To see a hippo hero standing there<br />

<br />

I want a hippopotamus for Christmas<br />

Only a hippopotamus will do<br />

No crocodiles or rhinoceroseses<br />

I only like hippopotamuseses<br />

And hippopotamuses like me too!
