lyrics

We call him up, he comes around,
We call him up, he picks it up he comes around.
He takes a look, he takes it down,
He takes a look, he puts it up, he takes it down.

He he he´s the Handy Hippo,
He he likes to help us out,
He he he´s the Handy Hippo,
He looks at it, he fixes it, it´s what he knows about.

He turns around, he looks around,
He turns around, he picks it up, he looks around.
He turns it off, he turns it on,
He picks it up, he plugs it in, he turns it on.

He he he´s the Handy Hippo,
He he likes to help us out,
He he he´s the Handy Hippo,
He looks at it, he fixes it, it´s what he knows about.

He lifts it up, he puts it in,
He takes it up, he lifts it up, he puts it in.
He cleans it up, he takes it down
He changes it, he cleans it up, he puts it in.

He he he´s the Handy Hippo,
He he likes to help us out,
He he he´s the Handy Hippo,
He looks at it, he fixes it, it´s what he knows about.

He he he´s the Handy Hippo,
He he likes to help us out,
He he he´s the Handy Hippo,
He looks at it, he fixes it, it´s what he knows about.
