The Poptimists Advent Calendar Presents THE BEST WOBS SONG OF THIS OR ANY YEAR
It's my favourite. And it ties in with my new pengin*, kind of. Was being saved for the 24th but who's online on the 24th?
Gayla Peavey - I Want A Hippopotamus For Christmas
This 1953 song was sung in order to get an real actual hippo for Gayla's local zoo! The campaign succeeded and the hippo delighted local children for many years afterwards.

A baby hippo playing w/a tortoise.
Hippos are actually dangerous animals, short-sighted bad-tempered and heavy, they should not be given as a Wobs gift, or at any other time.
*a stuffed one. I AM NOT THE BABY PENGUIN THIEF.
