[00:00:04] I want a hippopotamus for Christmas

[00:00:08] A hippopotamus is all I want

[00:00:12] I don't want a doll no dinky Tinkertoy

[00:00:16] I want a hippopotamus to play with and enjoy

[00:00:20] I want a hippopotamus for Christmas

[00:00:24] I don't think Santa Claus will mind do you

[00:00:28] He won't have to use our dirty chimney flue

[00:00:32] Just bring him through the front door

[00:00:33] That's the easy thing to do

[00:00:35] I can see me now on Christmas morning

[00:00:40] Creeping down the stairs

[00:00:43] Oh what joy and what surprise

[00:00:45] When I open up my eyes

[00:00:47] To see my hippo hero standing there

[00:00:52] I want a hippopotamus for Christmas

[00:00:56] Only a hippopotamus will do

[00:01:00] No crocodiles or rhinoceroses

[00:01:04] I only like Mesopotamian

[00:01:08] And hippopotamuses like me too

[00:01:12] I want a hippopotamus for Christmas

[00:01:16] A hippopotamus is all I want

[00:01:20] Mom says the hippo would eat me up

[00:01:22] But then teacher says a hippo is a vegetarian

[00:01:28] I want a hippopotamus for Christmas

[00:01:32] The kind I saw this summer at the zoo

[00:01:36] There's lots of room for him in our car garage

[00:01:40] I'd feed him there and wash him there

[00:01:42] And give him his massage

[00:01:44] I can see me now on Christmas morning

[00:01:48] Creeping down the stairs

[00:01:52] Oh what joy and what surprise

[00:01:54] When I open up my eyes

[00:01:56] To see my hippo hero standing there

[00:02:00] I want a hippopotamus for Christmas

[00:02:04] Only a hippopotamus will do

[00:02:08] No crocodiles or rhinoceroses

[00:02:12] I only like hippopotamuses

[00:02:16] And hippopotamuses like me too
