"Hippo, Hippo!" lyrics

Walkin' through the plains of Africa
We came across a watering hole
Kneeling down to have a drink
We saw something we didn't know

Only saw the eyes and ears
And thought it might be dangerous
It was under water, but then it came
Out of the water, there it was

It was a hippo, hippo!
Talkin' 'bout a hippopotamus
Hippo, hippo!

There it was, much to our surprise
The largest hippo ever seen
When we tried to introduce ourselves
Saw something you'd never believe

The hippo started to dance around
Like a ballerina on a stage
It hardly even touched the ground
Light on it's feet, there it was

It was a hippo, hippo!
Talkin' 'bout a hippopotamus
Hippo, hippo!

Hippo, hippo!
Talkin' 'bout a hippopotamus
Hippo, hippo!
Hipp, hipp, hipp, hipp, hipp, hippopotamus
