I was sitting in Friday's

Sucking on a glass of wine

When in walked a chick

Who almost struck me blind

Had wet blue eyes

And her legs were long and fine

On a scale of one to ten

I'd give her a nine

Now on my scale there ain't no ten's

You know nine is about

As far as any chick can go

So I flashed her a smile

But she didn't even look at me

So for brains and good judgement

I'd give her a three

I said Hey sweet thing

You look like a possible eight

You and me could uh make eighteen

If your head's on straight

She looked up and down my perfect frame

And said these words that

Burned into my perfect brain

She said well

Another one of those macho matician men

Kind who grade all

Women on scales of one to ten

And you give me an eight well

That's a generous thing to do

Now let's just see

Just how much I give you

She said you coming on to me

With that phony numbers jive

Your style makes me smile

I give it a five

When you walked up I noticed

That suit of yores

It's last year's double knit frayed cuffs

Give it a four

That must be your car

Parked out on the curb

That sixty nine homemade convertible

A three and a third

Now as for your build

I guess yore less than five

Except for your pot belly

I'd give that a ten for size

That wine you're pouring

Might be fine to you

But I'm used to fine champagne

I give it a two

It's hard to tell

What your flashing smile is worth

I give it a six

You could use some dental work

But It's your strutting rooster act

That really makes me laugh

It may be a ten to these country hens

But to me a three and a half

And there really ain't much to add

Once the subtractin's done

Since there ain't no zeroes

I give you a one

She walked out

While up and down the line

The whole bar was laughing

Said Bare

What happened to your nine

Nine says I

Hell soon as she started to talk I knew

She didn't have no class

I barely gave her a two

Yeah No matter

How good they look at first

There's flaws in all of them

That's why on a scale of ten to one friend

There ain't no ten
