Christmas Carols I Want a Hippopotamus for Christmas Lyrics:
I want a hippopotamus for Christmas
Only a hippopotamus will do
Don't want a doll, no dinky Tinker Toy
I want a hippopotamus to play with and enjoy

I want a hippopotamus for Christmas
I don't think Santa Claus will mind, do you?
He won't have to use our dirty chimney flue
Just bring him through the front door,
that's the easy thing to do

I can see me now on Christmas
morning, creeping down the stairs
Oh what joy and what surprise when I open up my eyes
To see a hippo hero standing there

I want a hippopotamus for Christmas

Only a hippopotamus will do
No crocodiles nor rhinoceroses
I only like hippopotamuses
And hippopotamuses like me too

Mom says the hippo would eat me up to thin,
Teacher says a hippo is a vegetarian

We've got room for him in our 2 car garage
We'd feed him there and wash him there
and give him his massage

I can see me now on Christmas
morning, creeping down the stairs
Oh what joy and what surprise when I open up my eyes
To see a hippo hero standing there

I want a hippopotamus for Christmas
Only a hippopotamus will do
No crocodiles or rhinoceroseses
I only like hippopotamuseses
And hippopotamuses like me too!
Lyrics: I Want a Hippopotamus for Christmas, Christmas
