Toys'r'us - lyrics

[Piper-AK]

What are the lyrics of the Toys'r'us advert?  It's the bit that goes

'There's millions of ????? all under one roof. Toys'r'us, Toys'r'us, Toys'r'us!'

I have looked to see if this has come up before (searched for Toys'r'us) but couldn't find anything.

Contrary to the more accurate, (but grammatically incorrect) interpretation "There's millions of debris all under one roof....", the correct version appears to centre around the 'face' of Toys-R-Us, one 'Geoffrey the Giraffe'.

Geoffrey appears to be the main protagonist in the encouragement of small children to leave the safety of the nursery in the middle of the night with a cuddly giraffe, hop it down to the nearest desolate, wind-swept out-of-town retail park and divest their hard won pocket money into the pockets of this multi-national giant in exchange for over-priced, saturation-advertised, Film-TV-and-Burger-Chain tie-in plastic goods.

Hence, the jingle says;
"...'There's millions' says Geoffrey, 'All under one roof'..."

As to exactly what there are 'millions' of, however, has yet to be explained.

Thank you - I'd never have guessed that in a million years!

millions of ���� for the hypermegaglobal corp that owns it.

Hmmm.... It's been a VERY long time since I last saw any Toys'R'us adverts but I thought it was "There's millions of BARGAINS all under one roof..." etc.

[GuruGuy]

There's a magical place
We're on our way there
With toys in their millions
All under one roof
It's Called Toys'R'Us!

Soon after bedtime
When dark nightime falls
Geoffrey and helpers stock up on the shelves
From ceiling to floor

Books Boardgames and Bikes
Teddies, Puppets and Dolls
Bats, Spaceships and Trikes

There's Millions says Geoffrey
All under on roof

It's Called Toys'R'Us! Toys'R'Us!
Toys'R'Us! Toys'R'Us!

The official lyrics are "There's millions says Geoffrey all under one roof"

Millions of Geoffrey? I thought Geoffrey is the name of the giraffe.

[Savagerose]

Lol, it's actually, "Theres millions says Geoffrey, all under one roof"
But for years I thought it was saying, "Theres millions of Geoffreys all under one roof" and couldn't for the life of me, work out why they would want millions of giraffes under their roof! :)
