Ten (or tin)

Ten as in twenty-ten or two-thousand-and-ten.
There might not be many "ten" songs, so g'head and use "tin" the metal if you want to.

After ten rounds with Jose Cuervo
I lost count and started counting again!

I'm going once
going twice
I'm sold on the lady in the second row
she's an eight
she's a nine
she's a ten I know
she got ruby red lips
blonde hair, blue eyes
and I'm about to bid my heart goodbye...

Ten cents a dance
That's what they pay me
Gosh, how they weigh me down
Ten cents a dance
Pansies and tough guys
Rough guys who tear my gown

four, three, two, one, Lift off

Oz never did give nothin' to the Tin Man
That he didn't, didn't already have.

Ten minutes ago I met you
You looked up when I came through the door

I got me ten fine toes to wiggle in the sand
Lots of idle fingers snap to my command

And there's ten stuffed heads in my trophy room right now -
Two game wardens,
Seven hunters,
And a purebred Guernsey cow.

"Hunting Song", Tom Lehrer


And I don't remember "Dance Ten, Looks Three" from "Chorus Line" well enough to play...does anyone know it?

Pick up your laundry
doctor's at ten
we're out of toothpaste
rehersal again...

Snowhere, I can help you! Thanks for the idea.

Dance ten, looks three
And I'm still on unemployment
Dancing for my own enjoyment
That ain't it kid!
Dance ten, looks three
It's like to die
Called the doctor and grabbed a taxi
For my appointment to buy...
Tits and ass!

(Marvin Hamlisch, from "A Chorus Line")

Nine, ten, a big fat hen
Starts to count all over again!
