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. (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!

Originally Posted By amazedncal2 I usually have the same feeling about Christmas music Lisann and K2. No Christmas CD's until Black Friday.

I think I have one that is called "Sounds of Autumn" that includes some Christmas tunes. I'll dig that one out. LOL! Sara Tonin, that song is the one DH and I "fast forward" as soon as possible. On our CD it is sung by a whiny voiced child/adult and is uber annoying. ACK!! I will resist, I will resist!

Originally Posted By amazedncal2 Yes, fire! We were up in the balcony and when we walked out into the hall it looked like we'd just walked into the smoking section, yet no one was smoking. The running is what got to me, how do they keep up that energy? OK, I am going to play ONE of the tracks on the Christmas album today. Just one

I think it's been going for a week already. I've been playing Christmas songs sinces mid October, well just for part of the class. My kids are working on routines for our Christmas shows and we have to start early or they won't be done in time.
