I Want a Hippopotamus for Christmas歌词：

 

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 my 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

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 my hippo hero standing there

I want a hippopotamus for Christmas

Only a hippopotamus will do

No crocodiles or rhinoceroseses

I only like hippopotamuses

And hippopotamuses like me too


I(525) A(411) For(217) Christmas(128) Want(47) Peevey(2) Gayla(2) Hippopotamus(2)
