Colin Pimlott - 8 Out Of 10 Won't Do Lyrics

I see her when I'm passing by every day, going to my 9 to 5
Busy as a bee, she runs a candy shop
I know that if I went inside to try and ask her out on a date
I'd only end up leaving with a lollipop!

I'll never get a second chance to make a first impression
And 8 out of 10 may have got me through school
But I need to do my homework now to get it right with her first time
And not score 10 out of 10 as a fool

Don't want to make it creepy but I need to know more about that girl
So I know what I can say, and what I can't
Don't want to hear the old cliche that if she turns you down, then at least you'll know
'Cause me knowin' won't fix my broken heart

I'll never get a second chance to make a first impression
And 8 out of 10, well it just won't do
Although I'm not playin' games, I want to win the girl of my dreams
Or it'll be the last thing I ever do

So I'll carry on a passing by, every day, back and forth to my 9 to 5
Where I'm busy as a bee in my office block

Knowin' that I'll never get a second chance to make that first impression
So 8 out of 10 I'm puttin' in the past
Oh yeah! I'm 'gonna up my game, and go to pieces no more
If I'm to make her mine, if I'm to make it last

Oh yeah! I'm 'gonna up my game, I'm 'gonna go to pieces no more
I'm 'gonna make her mine, I'm 'gonna make it last

'Cause 8 out of 10, it just won't do
No more
