kate rusby – hippo for christmas lyrics
[verse 1]
i want a hippopotamus for christmas
only a hippopotamus will do
i don’t want a doll, no d+nky tinkertoy
i want a hippopotamus to play with and enjoy
[verse 2]
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
[bridge]
i can see me now on christmas morning
creeping down the stairs
oh, what joy and what delight
when i open up my eyes
to see a hippo hero standing there
[verse 3]
i want a hippopotamus for christmas
only a hippopotamus will do
no crocodiles, no rhinoceroses
i only like hippopotamuses
and hippopotamuses like me too
[instrumental break]
[verse 4]
mum says a hippo would eat me up, but then
teacher says the hippo is a vegetarian
[verse 5]
there’s lots of room for him in our two+car garage
i’d feed him there and wash him therе and give him a massage
[verse 1]
oh, i want a hippopotamus for christmas
only a hippopotamus will do
i don’t want a doll, no d+nky tinkertoy
i want a hippopotamus to play with and еnjoy
[bridge]
i can see me now on christmas morning
creeping down the stairs
oh, what joy and what delight
when i open up my eyes
to see a hippo hero standing there
[verse 3]
i want a hippopotamus for christmas
only a hippopotamus will do
no crocodiles, no rhinoceroseses
i only like hippopotamuseses
and hippopotamuses like me too
[outro]
and hippopotamuses like me too
hippopotamuses like me too
hippopotamuses not rhinoceroses
hippopotamuses like me too
