Doctor, Doctor
UFO · Impact Live [2005]
Oh, the mess I'm in
Doctor doctor, please,
oh the mess I'm in
She walked up to me
and really stole my heart
And then she started
to take my body apart
*Livin', lovin', I'm on the run
Far away from you
Livin', lovin', I'm on the run
So far away from you
Doctor doctor, please
Oh, I'm goin' fast
Doctor doctor, please,
oh, I'm goin' fast
It's only just a moment,
she's turnin' paranoid
That's not a situation for a nervous boy
Doctor doctor, please
Oh, the mess I'm in
Doctor doctor, please,
oh, the mess I'm in
But you look so angry
as I crawled across your floor
She's got the strain,
and I can't take any more
*Repeat
*Repeat
Doctor, Doctor
UFO's 'Doctor, Doctor' stands as a defining track from their 1975 debut album, 'Space', though this specific live rendition appears on the 2005 compilation 'Impact Live'. The song encapsulates the band's signature blend of hard rock and progressive elements, featuring a driving rhythm section and John Wetton's distinctive bass lines that became a hallmark of their sound. Originally written by Wetton and co-vocalist Phil Mogg, the track explores themes of medical anxiety and existential dread, delivered with a raw energy that reflected the band's early status as a major force in the UK rock scene. Its inclusion in live sets throughout the 1970s and subsequent reissues highlights its enduring appeal and status as a staple of UFO's catalog.
