Despite the lyrics which praise a singular star, the star at whom it’s directed is never shown. Miss E is absent and it’s the multiples in the chorus who actually take center stage in this performance. Miss E is not even named – only referred to as ‘she’ or ‘You Know Who.’
[BOYS]
One singular sensation
Every little step she takes
One thrilling combination
Every move that she makes
One smile and suddenly nobody else will do
You know you'll never be lonely with you-know-who
One moment in her presence
And you can forget the rest
For the girl is second best
To none, son
Ooh! Sigh! Give her your attention
Do I really have to mention
She's the onе?
[GIRLS]
One singular sensation
Every littlе step she takes
One thrilling combination
Every move that she makes
One smile and suddenly nobody else will do
You know you'll never be lonely with you-know-who

For the girl is second best
To none, son
Ooh! Sigh! Give her your attention
Do I really have to mention
She's the one?

Elbow right, down, point
Step, brush

Suddenly nobody
Step, flick, step, up
Step and step

Body right, eyes front, five, six, sev' and
Ooh! Sigh!
Point to the head, point to the side
Give her your attention

Hat up, hat hold, hat up, hat hold
Hat up and up and up and up

For the girl is second best
To none, son
Ooh! Sigh! Give her your attention
Do I really have to mention
She's the one?
One!
