One Way

One Way, also known as The Sign Said One Way, is a Sesame Street song about a man having trouble navigating a one-way street.

Lyrics
Biker: I'm so lonely. I wish I was there.

There is nothing but heartbreak ahead.

Yes, I lost my true love all because of a sign. That said..

One way.

Background Singers: One way.

All: The sing said one way.

Biker: I revved up my cycle and I cruised toward the house where she lives.

Background Singers: Lives! Lives!

Biker: As I turned off a street, a police person shouted "What gives?!".

Background Singer: She had to flash her badge and said "What gives?!".

Biker: "You can't go that way, buddy," she said. And she pointed up over my head.

To a sign on my post on my baby's street.

That read "one way".

Background Singers: One way, the sign said

All: one way!

Biker: My heart skipped a beat when she said I could see her tonight.

Background Singers: Tonight. Tonight.

Biker: But she lives to the left and that arrow there points to the right.

Background Singers: The arrow on the sign was pointing right.

Biker: Oh, why must they keep us apart?

Our love's doomed before it can start.

And I feel like that sign with the arrow is piercing my heart.

One way!

Background Singers: One way!

All: The sign said "one way"!

Biker: I rode round the block to her doorway with wings on my wheels.

Background Singers: Wheels! Wheels!

Biker: I'd waited so long for her kiss. Now I know how it feels.

Background Singers: She kissed a man, he knows just how it feels.

Biker: And I shout to the heavens above twelve short words that I'm extra proud of: That arrow-shaped sign will not keep me away from my love!

One way!

Background Singers: One way!

Biker: The sign said one way!

Background Singers: The sign said one way!

All (except girlfriend): The sign said one way!

Biker: One way! One way! One way! (while background singers scat).
