Oh, the number one is not my favorite number (why?)

'Cause one means only me and there's no you (aw, Ernie)

But one plus one you see

Makes two, that's you and me

And it's more fun when one and one make two



Oh, one and one make two

At least I'm pretty sure they do

Oh yes it's true

One and one make two



Now, say you want to play upon a seesaw

You're all alone and don't know what to do (well, what would I do, Ernie?)

Well, just go and find a friend

And he'll sit on the other end

You'll have more fun when one and one make two



Oh, one and one make two

At least I'm pretty sure they do

Oh yes it's true

One and one make two



Now, everyone needs somebody to share with

A pal to help and care for through and through

And there's no one that I've known

Who can do those things alone

It's a lot nicer when one and one make two



Oh, one and one make two

At least I'm pretty sure they do

Oh yes it's true

One and one make two



(Let's sing harmony!)

One and one make two

At least I'm pretty sure they do

Oh yes it's true

One and one make two

I said, it's true

One and one make two

They certainly do

One and one make two-oo-ooh!
