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 my 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 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 rhinoceroseses

I only like hippopotamuses

And hippopotamuses like me too
