Lyrics

The palpitating cherry-red organ was returned to its rightful place and began to beat faster as it led our hero, counting out time, through his first romantic encounter

I'm counting out time
Got the whole thing down by numbers
All those numbers!
Give me guidance!
O lord I need that now

The day of judgement's come
And you can bet that I've been resting
For this testing
Digesting every word the experts say
Erogenous zones I love you
Without you, what would a poor boy do?

Found a girl I wanted to date
Thought I'd better get it straight
Went to buy a book before it's too late
Don't leave nothing to fate
I studied every line, every page in the book
Now, I've got the real thing here, I'm gonna take a look, take a look

This is rael!

I'm counting out time, hoping it goes like I planned it
'Cos I understand it. look! I've found the hotspots, figs 1-9
- still counting out time, got my finger on the button
"Don't say nuttin - just lie there still
And I'll get you turned on just fine."
Erogenous zones I love you
Without you, what would a poor boy do?

Touch and go with 1-6
Bit of trouble in zone no. 7
Gotta remember all of my tricks
There's heaven ahead in no. 11!
Getting crucial responses, dilation of the pupils
"Honey get hip! it's time to unzip, to unzip, zip, zip-a-zip-a-zip
Whipee!"
(Take it away mr. guitar)
- move over casanova -

I'm counting out time, reaction none to happy
Please don't slap me
I'm a red blooded male and the book said I could not fail
I'm counting out time, I got unexpected distress from my mistress
I'll get my money back from the bookstore right away
Erongenous zones I question you -
Without you, what would a poor boy do?
Without you, what would a poor boy do?
Without you, mankind handkinds thru' the blues
