Ich ändere meinen Weihnachtswunsch

*lach* nein nicht wirklich, aber ich finde das Lied irgendwie klasse *kicher* :o}


Gayla Peevey, recorded in 1953
Lyrics and music by John Rox

Für alle die evtl. mitsingen möchten ;o):

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

(Short Music Interlude)

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

(Short Music Interlude)

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! 


P.S. und was sagt ihr geht ins Ohr und der Fuß wippt mit *lach* 
Einen schönen zweiten Advent wünsch ich allen, die auch so im Schnee ertrinken wie wir seid heute morgen, und allen anderen natürlich auch!!
