Sick Again
Led Zeppelin · Physical Graffiti
I caught your pretty blue eyes
One day soon you're gonna reach sixteen
Painted lady in the city of lies
Oh, do ya know my name, do I look the same
You know I'm the one you want, baby
I must be the one you need, yeah
Clutchin' pages from your teenage dream
in the lobby of the hotel paradise
Through the circus of the L.A. queen
how fast you'll learn the downhill slide
Oh, how ya play the game, still don't know your name
You know I'm the one you want, baby
Woo-ooh, yes, I've got to be the one you need, need, need, need
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh, you've got to tell me
Just a minute, just a minute
Lips like cherries on the brow of a queen
Does come-on flash across yer eyes
Said ya dug me since ya were thirteen
then ya giggled as ya heaved and sighed
Oh, do ya know my name, do I look the same
Baby, I've got to tell ya, I'm the one you want
and everybody knows I'm the one you need, yeah, yeah
Oh, get it, get it, come on now, come on now, come on now
Hours, hours were the moments in between
Oh, baby, how the time flies
The fun of comin', oh, the pain in leavin'
Oh, baby, dry those silver eyes
Oh, do ya know my name, do I look the same
You know I'm the one you want
Woo-ooh, yeah, yes, I'm the one you need, yeah, yeah
Ooh, that's right, ooh, yeah, that's right
Ooh, that's right, that's right, that's right
Ooh, yeah, that's right, that's right
Ahh-ahh-ah-ah, ahh-ahh-ah-ah, ahh-ahh-ah-ah
Ahh-ahh-ah-ah, ahh-ahh-ah-ah
Sick Again
Sick Again stands as a vibrant example of Led Zeppelin's hard rock prowess, appearing on their 1975 double album Physical Graffiti. The track showcases the band's signature blend of bluesy riffs and dynamic percussion, driven by John Bonham's powerful drumming and John Paul Jones's distinctive bass lines. Robert Plant's vocal delivery captures a sense of weary resilience, while Jimmy song's guitar work provides the song's energetic backbone. As part of a landmark release that consolidated the group's diverse musical range, the recording highlights their ability to craft infectious, high-energy rock anthems. The song remains a testament to the band's creative peak during the mid-1970s, reflecting the raw power and intricate musicianship that defined their extensive discography and enduring influence on rock music.
