The Toybox

You are about to see the most incredible doll ever invented

Her name is Poppy and she is the first truly intelligent doll in the world

Come take a tour behind the doors where dreams are made

Where boys and girls around the world can come to play

Where you'll see entertainment innovation on display

Though you can't escape the fun, imagination runs away

There's no better place to spend

All your days and play pretend

No, you won't be on your own

'Cause you can always make a friend

So, on us you can depend

That the fun will never end

'Cause we're much too plush to break

But just maybe we could bend

Then the lights went down

And the doors stayed closed

And the toys soon found

They were on their own

So as silence fell

On their factory home

Well, they climbed from shelves

And began to roam

Now, you may think we're just playthings

Sitting wasting and decaying

We've been waiting every day since

You made graves out of our casings

We were made for entertaining

So forgive us for complaining

All you left for us to do

Was spool through tapes of safety training

Trapped in the factory, what a calamity

Banished to languish in cramped bits of packaging

Plastic all cracked and fragmented and rattling

Tangled and matted and batteries flattening

Warranty voided and sanity vanishing

Stitches have split and our minds are unravelling

Left us abandoned, but now you've come back and

We've banked up the hugs, so come get some love!

Out of the toybox

Now we're crawling out the toybox

Now we're crawling out the toybox

Now we're crawling out the toybox

A little girl can talk to her, Poppy gives her answers

She is the first doll actually able to have a conversation with a child

Hard to believe? Just watch

I love you! Ah!

'Cause we're destined to be best friends

You and I, from the second you stepped in

You give me butterflies in my tummy

As my hugs mulch your intestines

Give a high five to the big guy

And a big hand to yourself

Now your arms are long enough

To slap boxes off the shelf

But if you think that gloves and string

Are really going to help

We're wondering what other limbs

Can be detached as well

Don't think that toys have got things to say then?

Look at these points of articulation

Pull on my string, have a conversation

Oh, so you think we're abominations?

Look who made us, then betrayed us

Left to must and dust for ages

Rusting, stuck in cardboard cages

Memories fade as rage replaces

What we were, our former names

We aren't quite sure from where we came

But someone must have worked here once

And now they're gone and we remain!

All we know is how to play

Play, play, play, play

Then you took the play away

Way, way, way, way

Three and up is what they say

Say, say, say, say

Now we're into playing

Way more dangerous games

Wind it up, watch it spin

All the lies come round again

Close your eyes, count to ten

You can't hide from your friends

And if you've ever wanted to see how all of the nation's favourite toys were created

Playtime Co. is now offering factory tours at just 2.99 a person

What time is it?

It's playtime!

Now we're crawling out the toybox

Now we're crawling out the toybox

Now we're crawling out the toybox

Now we're crawling out the toybox

So take a tour where all the dreams have gone to die

Where just some double-As can make your nightmares come to life

Where imagination paved the way to suffering and strife

It's a play date with destiny we've yet to see survived!

Take those tin toys from the attic

Bring those dolls down from the loft

Take your old friend out and ask if

They resent their resting spot

They may just be some plastic

They may look stuffed and soft

They'll still put you in a casket

But you won't be mint in box

Now we're crawling out the toybox

(Wind it up, watch it spin)

Now we're crawling out the toybox

(All the lies come round again)

Now we're crawling out the toybox

(Close your eyes, count to ten)

Now we're crawling out the toybox

(You can't hide from your friends)

Now we're crawling out the toybox

Now we're crawling out the toybox

Now we're crawling out the toybox

Now we're crawling out the toybox

Ready or not, we'll find you!

Huggy's long, huggable arms may present a choking hazard

Ready or not, we'll find you!
