When You’re Near Me I Have Difficulty
[Chorus]
When 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

[Verse 1]
I used to stand proud like a sphinx
In a noble, immovable state
And 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

[Chorus]
When 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

[Verse 2]
I used to stand high like a pine
Just a piece of emotionless wood
And when you put your body near mine
Now I'm feeling like a jellyfish
Just a spineless, wobbly jellyfish
And it's good, good, so good
[Bridge]
I used to be an iceman, living in an iceman town
So I'm warning all you cool, cool icemen
Better be prepared to be melted right down!
Down!

[Instrumental break]

[Chorus]
When 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

[Outro]
When you're near me, I have difficulty
When you're near me, I have difficulty
When you're near me, I have difficulty...
