"Counting Out Time" is a song by progressive rock band Genesis off of their 1974 album The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway. The song is more pop-like than the rest of Genesis' earlier work, possibly the cause of it being the lead single from this album. As part of the rock opera, this song describes the main character, Rael, as he attempts to make his way through a book he had bought a long time ago titled 'Erogenous Zones and Difficulties in Overcoming Finding Them.' This was one of the three songs included from The Lamb on Genesis' 3-disc compilation, Platinum Collection.
