When You're Near Me I Have Difficulty (Unused Single Recording) - XTC

hen you’re near me I have difficulty respirating

When you’re near me I have difficulty concentrating

When you’re near me I have difficulty standing upright

When you’re near me I have difficulty sleeping at night

I used to stand proud like a sphinx

In a noble immovable state

Then your heart nailed me under a jinx

Now I’m feeling like a jellyfish

Just a spineless wobbly jellyfish

And it’s great, great, so great

I used to stand high like a pine

Just a piece of emotionless wood

When you put your body near mine

Now I’m feeling like a jellyfish

And it’s good, good, so good
