I saw the samurais' era long ago Covering anything, working for young and old But as the ages passed I thought I'd seen the last Stuck in a chest, covered in dust Never a chance to show all the world what I know
Get up! (Get up!) I am proud of what I am Hey, now! (Hey, now!) Now my time has come again Slip around a briefcase, wrap it up, I can Anytime, anywhere, I'm your man
I am a furoshiki, managing your every need Small, I am, I know it's true But I can do dig things too Got a gift you have to wrap? Gotta leave and need a sack? Covering, look, pants that you took Even a precious book
Gather together man Wrap it up nicely man Furoshikiman! (Furoshikiman! Furoshikiman!)
Taking easily almost any shape Maybe you, maybe her, maybe baby him And many years from now maybe people then Over the years, this I swear, I will be there to cover it all, as you go
See me! (See me!) At full power once again Hey now! (Hey now!) Now my time has come again Easily I billow out my body on demand Anytime, anywhere, I'm your man
I am a furoshiki, managing your every need Thin, I am, although it's true I can really care for you If the rain begins to fall I can be a parasol Drying you off after it clears Wiping away your tears
Gather together man Wipe it off nicely man Furoshikiman! (Furoshikiman! Furoshikiman!)
I am a furoshiki, managing your every need Square, I am, although it's true I can wrap around balls too When I'm on your back I make A mantle or a magic cape Now's the time, it's time for you You can be a hero too
Saving our planet, man Saving our future, man Furoshikiman! (Furoshikiman! Furoshikiman!)
