Lyrics
[Verse 1] I'm counting out time Got the whole thing down by numbers All those numbers Give me guidance Oh 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 [Chorus] Erogenous zones, I love you Without you, what would a poor boy do? [Bridge 1] 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 And now, I've got the real thing here I'm gonna take a look, take a look (This is it, Rael) [Verse 2] I'm counting out time Hoping it goes like I planned it 'Cause I understand it Look, I've found the hotspots, figures 1 to 9 Still counting out time I got my finger on the button Don't say nothin' Just lie there still And I'll get you turned on just fine [Chorus] Erogenous zones, I love you Without you, what would a poor boy do? [Bridge 2] Touch and go with 1 to 6 Bit of trouble in zone number 7 Gotta remember all of my tricks There's heaven ahead in number 11 Getting crucial responses With dilation of the pupils Honey, get hip! It's time to unzip To unzip, zip, zip-a-zip-a-zip Whoopee! [Guitar Solo] (Take it away, Mr. Guitar) (Move over, Casanova) [Verse 3] I'm counting out time Reaction none too 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 [Chorus/Outro] Erogenous zones, I question you Without you, what would a poor boy do? Without you, what would a poor boy do? Without you, mankind handkinds Through the blues
