I'M A HAP HAP HAPPY HIPPO

By Josie Whitehead

I'm a Hap Hap Happy Hippo

I’m a hap hap happy hippo

     Who plays out in the sun.

When all you children are at school

     I’m out there having fun.

 

I love to sit in water

     Which keeps me cool when hot

And wallowing in a muddy pond

     Is what I like a lot.

 

I’m glad I’m not a boy or girl

     Who goes to school each day

And I think I’m very lucky

     For it’s in my pool I play.

 

I’m a hap hap happy hippo

     And a really friendly guy.

But now it’s time to go to sleep

     So I’ll wish you all bye bye.
