I Want a Hippopotamus for Christmas - Gayla Peevey
Written by：Rox
I want a hippopotamus for Christmas

Only a hippopotamus will do

Don't want a doll no dinky tinkertoy

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

Mom says the hippo would eat me up but then
Teacher says a hippo is a vegetarian

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 rhinoceroses

I only like hippopotamus
And hippopotamuses like me too
