Lyrics I Want a Hippopotamus for Christmas

I want a hippopotamus for Christmas only a hippopotamus will do
I 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 or 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 hippopotamuses
And hippopotamuses like me too
