- I Want a Hippopotamus for Christmas
Gayla Peevey, recorded in 1953
Lyrics and music by John Rox
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.
(Short Music Interlude) **
Mom says the hippo would eat me up, but then
Teacher says a hippo is a vegetarian
(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 rhinoceroses
I only like hippopotamuses
And hippopotamuses like me too!
