Okay, at this point, the bass/guitar starts playing the following at a
sorta "double-time" pace:

While a lead electric guitar does something like this:
remember...play it FAST :)

Then, the bass/guitar begins its "verse" part; that really cool, crunchy,
ominous-sounding bassline (while the electric guitar twangs out an Em7):

You can adlib a bit on that bass part wherever you feel it's necessary.
Listen to the CD to get the variations. ;)
Now, comes the "pre-chorus" ("Tell me, who ya gonna call when you need that
affection..."). The basic chords are D A C G, but here's the tab:
(D) (A) (C) (G)

--------------|-------------|---------------|-3--------|
Then for the chorus ("All you bad, bad boys, call her up on the Spank
Line"), there's this variation on the main verse riff:
bf bf
||---------------|-----------------------|---------------|----------------|

-0-0-2/4-------|-0-0-2/4---------------|--------------|-0-0-2/4-----||
After the SECOND chorus, there's a bit with percussive guitar noises and
vocal and guitar echo effects, just adlib that. Do a lot of divebomb stuff
with a ton of delay and reverb. :)
Here's what I could gather from the lyrics:
Verse 1:
Both feet up, watchin' TV
Someplace to feast my eyes.
Well I'm always tripped on commercials
But this one blew my mind.
Pre-chorus 1:
"Tell me who you gonna call
When you need that affection?
You got ta' have it quick.
Well just aim your love line
In her direction."
Whoa_____!
Chorus:
All you bad, bad boys
Call her up on the Spank Line.
All you bad, bad boys
Call her up on the Spank Line.
Verse 2:
Three dollars, first minute
After that, cost ya' four.
She'll be up for negotiations
If you come back for more.
Pre-chorus 2:
"Now, who you gonna call
When you need that special little somethin'?
You can say what you like.
It's all confidential."
Interlude (the part with all the wierd echo effects and stuff);
B-b-bad boy!
Dial 1-900-SPANKED!
All you bad, bad boys
Call her up on the Spank Line.
