Lyrics[]
I want a hippopotamus for Christmas A hippopotamus is all I want 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, no rhinoceroses I only like hippopotamuses And hippopotamuses like me too
I want a hippopotamus for Christmas A hippopotamus is all I want Mom says the hippo would eat me up, but then Teacher says a hippo is a vegetarian
I want a hippopotamus for Christmas The kind I saw last summer at the zoo There's lots of room for him in our two-car garage I'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!
