One is the loneliest number that you’ll ever do
Two can be as bad as one it’s the loneliest number since the number one

Em           Em7                     Em6   C7
No is the saddest experience you’ll ever know 
Yes, it’s the saddest experience you’ll ever know
Because one is the loneliest number that’ll you’ll ever do 
One is the loneliest number that you’ll ever know

It’s just no good anymore since you went away

Now I spend my time just making rhymes

Of yesterday

Em           Em7                               Em6   C7
Because one is the loneliest number that you’ll ever do
One is the loneliest number that you’ll ever know 
One is the loneliest number, one is the loneliest number 
One is the loneliest number that you’ll ever do 
One is the loneliest number, much much worse than two 
One is a number divided by two

(Life isn't easy when two are divided and one has decided 
to bring down the curtain and on things for certain there's 
nothing to keep them together)

[the last phrase of lyrics is from the Harry Nilsson song "Together" from 
the same LP on which "One" appeared as a remix; _Aerial Pandemonium 
Ballet_, a mix of 2 earilier LP's, _Aerial Ballet_ and _Pandemonium Shadow
 Show_. On this version he did a similar segue, incorporating phrases 
from "One" in "Together", the opposite of what 
Aimee Mann

 did here.]
