It's Hippo Time Again!!!

[Doctor Hmmm?]

 

 

I Want A Hippopotamus For Christmas

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 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

Mom says the hippo would eat me up, but then
Teacher says a hippo is a vegeterian

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 hippopotamuseses
And hippopotamuses like me too!

Let us not forget...

Deck us all with Boston Charlie,
Walla Walla, Wash., an' Kalamazoo!
Nora's freezin' on the trolley,
Swaller dollar cauliflower alley-garoo!

Don't we know archaic barrel
Lullaby Lilla Boy, Louisville Lou?
Trolley Molly don't love Harold,
Boola boola Pensacoola hullabaloo!

Bark us all bow-wows of folly,
Polly wolly cracker 'n' too-da-loo!
Donkey Bonny brays a carol,
Antelope Cantaloupe, 'lope with you!

Hunky Dory's pop is lolly gaggin' on the wagon,
Willy, folly go through!
Chollie's collie barks at Barrow,
Harum scarum five alarm bung-a-loo!

Dunk us all in bowls of barley,
Hinky dinky dink an' polly voo!
Chilly Filly's name is Chollie,
Chollie Filly's jolly chilly view halloo!

Bark us all bow-wows of folly,
Double-bubble, toyland trouble! Woof, woof, woof!
Tizzy seas on melon collie!
Dibble-dabble, scribble-scrabble! Goof, goof, goof!

Hippos will not eat you, but hippos will kill you.

I bought my daughter a rubber Hippo for Christmas last year. She didn't get the joke. Maybe I should buy her one EVERY year until she gets it.

I've got this song on my YouTube Christmas/ Holiday/ Winter playlist. I has to create it because without WOXY.com this year, that means no WOXY Holiday mixer to stream. :(

Time for toys and time for cheer
We've been good, but we can't last
Hurry Christmas, hurry fast
[Simon and Theodore] Want a plane that loops the loop
[Alvin] Me, I want a hula hoop
[All Chipmunks] We can hardly stand the wait
Please Christmas, don't be late.

[Dave] Okay fellas get ready.
That was very good, Simon.
[Simon] Naturally.

 Ah, Alvin. Alvin. ALVIN!

[Alvin] What do you mean overdo it?
[Simon and Theodore] We want to sing it again!
[Dave] Now wait a minute, boys
[Alvin] Why can't we sing it again?
[chipmunk chatter]
[Dave] Alvin, cut that out..Theodore, just a minute.
Simon will you cut that out? Boys...

Pauley Perrette (Abby on NCIS) would be the perfect vocalist if the Hippo Song is ever remade.

Meanwhile, this is not as funny, but definitely in the spirit of the season. Welcome Christmas, lyrics by Dr. Seuss.

Da hoo dorais fa hoo dorais
Welcome Christmas christmas day
da hoo dorai fa hoo dorai
Welcome Christmas, Christmas day
Welcome, welcome fahoo ramus
Welcome, welcome dahoo damus
Christmas day is in our grasp
So long as we have hands to clasp
Fahoo fores dahoo dores
Welcome Christmas bring your cheer
Fahoo fores dahoo dores
Welcome all Whos far and near
