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.
[This song was written completely by Peter Gabriel, both words and music.]
Peter Gabriel:"Which brings him to the memory chambers of his first romantic adventures: exciting subject. This particular hero, Rael, had purchased a book entitled 'Erogenous Zones and Difficulties in Overcoming Finding Them'. After many months of serious study, the moment of realization came; and he found himself an opposite number and completed his entire numerical motions in a mere 78 seconds. This magnificent piece of masculine performance left his opposite number a little less than titillated -- I'll rephrase that -- a little less than extremely excited,"
Peter Gabriel:"And one of the faces I see wandering down the streets is a face that has been haunting me for a long time: the face of my first romantic adventure. I bought this book called 'Erogenous Zones and Difficulties in Overcoming Finding Them'. It's a book I studied for many months -- devoted study -- until I could move from page one to page one hundred with tremendous sophistication and skill. Finally, the moment of realization came. My opposite number arrived in the flesh, and I went through the entire number sequence in 78 seconds. This left my opposite number not even mildly titillated,"
I'm counting out time, Got the whole thing down by numbers. 
All those numbers! Give my 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's too late.
Don't leave nothing to fate.
And I have 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! 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 with dilation of the pupils. "Honey get hip! It's time to unzip, to unzip. Whipee!" -- 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.
Erogenous zones I question you --
Without you, what would a poor boy do?
Without you, mankind handkinds thru' the blues.
