I Want a Hippopotamus For Christmas...(Lyrics in MORE)

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, 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 vegeterian.
(Short Music Interlude)
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!

True Fact: Hippos are the most dangerous animals in Africa. They've killed more people than Lions, Crocodiles, etc. It's true

[gamersurvivorguide]

I don't know why.. but this song really irritates me...maybe cause I can't get it out of my head... hmn there you go.. a sequel.. "All I want is to get this song out of my head for christmas"

Why do some people just have to be vulgar, and especially when playing a video that children might watch. I'm sure you think it's hilarious, and it probably is to pedophiles and sexual deviants, but not to normal people.

I LOVE that dog in that video, he was annoying the crap out of the hippo when he was shaking his butt.

I sang this song in 2 grade for a chritmas concert. I was pretty good if I say so myself.
