"One Way" is a Sesame Street song that spoofs the Shangri-La song "Leader of the Pack". It tells the story of a greaser who can't get to his girlfriend's house because of a "One Way" sign on the road. He thinks his relationship is ruined, until his guardian angel comes and shows him an alternate route he can take. The greaser's initial desperation -- "I'm so lonely I wish I was dead", he mourns -- turns to happiness, as the greaser and his girlfriend ride around the block on his motorcycle.
