“I’m One” is one of the main moments of introspection spread throughout the narrative and also a sign that Jimmy may not be as Mod as he appears, given the way he asks a fellow Mod where he got his clothes. (Mods would lose face asking another Mod where he got his clothes).
Written and sung by Pete...
[Verse 1]
Every year, it's the same and I feel it again
I'm a loser, no chance to win
Leaves start falling, comedown is calling
Loneliness starts sinking in
[Chorus]
But I'm one, I am one
And I can see that this is me
And I will be
You'll all see I'm the one
[Verse 2]
Where do you get those blue, blue jeans?
Faded, patched secret, so tight
Where do you get that walk, oh so lean
Your shoes and your shirts all just right
[Chorus]
I'm one, I am one
And I can see that this is me
And I will be
You'll all see I'm the one
[Verse 3]
I've got a Gibson without a case
But I can't get that even-tanned look on my face
Ill-fitting clothes and I blend in the crowd
Fingers so clumsy, voice too loud
[Chorus]
But I'm one, I am one
And I can see that this is me
And I will be
You'll all see I'm the one
[Outro]
I'm the one
I'm the one
I’m One was written by Pete Townshend.
I’m One was produced by The Who & Kit Lambert.
