Musgraves, Kacey - I Want A Hippopotamus For Christmas Lyrics






I want a hippopotamus for Christmas
Only a hippopotamus will do
I 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 a 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 rhinoceroses
I only like hippopotamuses
And hippopotamuses like me, too

Mom says the hippo would eat me up
But then, my 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 a 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 rhinoceroses-es
I only like hippopotamuses-es
And hippopotamuses like me, too

    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 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



    (Swing it)



    Mom says a 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 rhinoceroses-es

    I only like hippopotamuses-es

    And hippopotamuses like me too
