[Instrumental] [Verse 1] Begin with a square sheet of paper - That's the start of your set up. If it’s colored on one side, Start with that side facing up. Fold it diagonally in half, To make a triangle. It needs to be real sharp, So make sure you crease it well. (Then unfold) [Bridge] Folding in on myself Perfected my technique. Bent my soul into a thousand shapes, Just to be the thing you seek. [Chorus] But paper hearts fall apart in the rain. And these paper cuts, they leave scars on my brain. All this work it brings nothing but pain But I keep making the folds all the same. ORIGAMI! [Instrumental] [Verse 2] Repeat for the other diagonal. You should now have an “X” crease. Now fold it in half vertically and horizontally, To make a cross upon the sheet. Then you use the creases To collapse the paper into a small square. Fold the top layers into the center crease, To make a kite; you're halfway there. [Bridge] Folding in on myself Perfected my technique. Bent my soul into a thousand shapes, Just to be the thing you seek. [Chorus] But paper hearts fall apart in the rain. And these paper cuts, they leave scars on my brain. All this work it brings nothing but pain But I keep making the folds all the same. ORIGAMI! [Instrumental] [Verse 3] Fold the top triangle down Then unfold and open up the bottom flap. Lift the top layer at the bottom point Fold it upward, then make the whole thing flat. (Flip and repeat on the other side) Now take one of the thin flaps, And we'll start to add in some nice detail. Fold it up at an angle to make the neck. And repeat to make the tail. Make a small fold to create the head. Before we finish with the wings. Fold down the top flaps on each side And pull apart to make it sing! [Bridge] Folding in on myself Perfected my technique. Bent my soul into a thousand shapes, Just to be the thing you seek. [Chorus] But paper hearts fall apart in the rain. And these paper cuts, they leave scars on my brain. All this work it brings nothing but pain But I keep making the folds all the same. ORIGAMI! ORIGAMI! ORIGAMI!
