Shirley Temple - 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 a dirty chimney fleu
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 and see a hippo hero
Standing there

I want a hippopotamus for Christmas,
Only a hippopotamus will do
No crocodiles, no rhinosorusses,
I only like hippopotamusses
And hippopotamusses like me too

Mom says the hippo would eat me up but then,
Teacher says the 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 and see a hippo hero
Standing there

I want a hippopotamus for Christmas,
Only a hippopotamus will do
No crocodiles, no rhinosorusses,
I only like hippopotamusses
And hippopotamusses like me too
