If  you had a room,  he'd paint it white,
 survives  the day,  prefers  the night,
build slight.
  Got a head for figures,
 no time for bickers,
 (or so he says,)
 prefers the company of a woman.  (One, two, three, four!)
Finds  it more  physical (that's an important word),
  always  seen  first then  heard,
such  a rare  bird.

With  praise he glows, with change he grows, finds that important,
hates  waiting, it's not stimulating, etc.
I  can't understand why that is so funny,
 that is sex.
 That's it.
