It hit me
Hit me hit me hit me
I ain’t gonna bend no more
One day I’m bound to break
You stripped me down to my core
That’s all that I can take
I been folding myself
Yeah
I really sold myself
With no escape
I been folding myself
In little shapes
Trying to please
Trying to appease you
And ended up with ten thousand me’s
When you met me
You said I was ice
You said you were the one to thaw me
Now I’m too broke
To pay that price
The secret to love
The secret to love
The secret to love is not Origami
I been so many shapes
Since the day that I was born
From ugly duckling to swan
And now a unicorn
I been folding myself
Yeah
I really sold myself
With no escape
I been folding myself
In little shapes
Trying to compare
Trying to ensnare you
Till finally there was no-one there
When you met me
You said I was ice
You said you were the one to thaw me
Now I’m too broken
To pay that price
The secret to love
The secret to love
The secret to love is not Origami
Oh how I miss the exchange
Of electricity
And now it feels so strange
To expose the real me
Ain’t gonna fold myself
Just gonna behold myself
I really sold myself
Ain’t gonna fold myself no
The secret to love
The secret to love
The secret to love is not Origami
Version 2: (from Doug's site) Bricrui's version:
These nights you just can’t sleep
'Keep pokin' you with a pin
You feel really beat
You try to hide in a bin
And-I found you
found you, found you, found you
I come runnin' through the door
Too fast to take a break
I find you a really big bore
I think I'll bake me a cake
Si be lold ding pi nelf
Yeah
Ni tilly rold vi celf
While eating pate
Si be lold ding pi nelf
Really big rates
Trying to lease you
Making you eat pea soup
And running away while really glee
When we saw you
We went to play dice
We gambled to take over your body
Now we're too broke
To even buy rice
Something above
Crying out to something above, for my mommy
I've been watching your tapes
They made me really forlorn
From a little duck in a pond
My Fiona was born
Si be lold ding pi nelf
Yeah
Ni tilly rold vi celf
A really big wait
Si be lold ding pi nelf
Putting on bait
Using a green pear
And a big brass snare
And I accidentally caught a really big bear
When we saw you
We went to play dice
We gambled to take over your body
Now we're too broke
To even buy rice
There goes a dove
A big flyin' dove, for their mommy
Ney, ney, ney
I don't have any change
For the machines of candy
It's not that big of a range
For a few cents to lend me
Si be lold ding pi nelf
Yeah
Ni tilly rold vi ti celf
I took lil' bit
Bi villy vold wi gelf
Nay lonna rold hi telf
Yeah
There's no such love
There's no such love
There's no such love as there is for my own Fi
