[00:05.50]Composed by：John Rox
[00:08.25]I want a hippopotamus for Christmas
[00:12.90]Only a hippopotamus will do
[00:17.05]I don't want a doll no dinky Tinkertoy
[00:21.13]I want a hippopotamus to play with and enjoy
[00:25.17]I want a hippopotamus for Christmas
[00:29.72]I don't think Santa Claus will mind do you
[00:33.74]He won't have to use our dirty chimney flue
[00:38.03]Just bring him through the front door
[00:40.05]That's the easy thing to do
[00:42.11]I can see me now on Christmas morning
[00:46.89]Creeping down the stairs
[00:50.47]Oh what joy and what surprise
[00:52.64]When I open up my eyes
[00:54.46]To see my hippo hero standing there
[00:59.23]I want a hippopotamus for Christmas
[01:03.60]Only a hippopotamus will do
[01:07.84]No crocodiles or rhinoceroseses
[01:12.02]I only like hippopotamuseses
[01:16.08]And hippopotamuses like me too
[01:28.90]Mom says the hippo would eat me up
[01:31.78]But then teacher says a hippo is a vegetarian
[01:45.56]There's lots of room for him in our two car garage
[01:49.44]I'd feed him there and wash him there
[01:51.81]And give him his massage
[01:53.71]I can see me now on Christmas morning
[01:58.36]Creeping down the stairs
[02:02.13]Oh what joy and what surprise
[02:04.11]When I open up my eyes
[02:06.10]To see my hippo hero standing there
[02:10.68]I want a hippopotamus for Christmas
[02:15.15]Only a hippopotamus will do
[02:19.36]No crocodiles or rhinoceroseses
[02:23.37]I only like hippopotamuses
[02:27.38]And hippopotamuses like me too
