slideshow - released from I.R.S. Records September 1981 on the b-side of the blue "The Crusher" 12" EP. It was a demo recording and it was actually stolen by the Record Company, that did issue it without asking the Cramps.
Kid Congo described as "one of my greatest moments- it's actually a duo between me and Ivy. And it's me playing the guitar and Ivy was switching like on and off faster and slower so it's sounds like it's going backwards and slowing down and up -- and it's one of the wildest sounds. I've never been able to recreate it, or have I heard anyone else recreating it -- this kind of magical sound"

Lyrics:
Life is short
Filled with stuff
Don't know what for
I ain't had enough
I've learned all I know
By the age of nine
But I could better myself
If I could only find
Some new kind of kick
Something I ain't had
Some new kind of buzz
I wanna go hog mad
I'm lookin' and lookin' and lookin' for
Something I ain't had before
I'm lookin' and lookin' and lookin' and lookin' to find
Some new kind of kick
Some new kind of kick
Gimme a kick
I want a kick
Like baby needs mom
Like Susie needs dick
This baby need
Some new kind of kick
I want some new kind of kick
I want some new kind of kick
I want some new kind of kick
I want some new kind of kick
I'm lookin' and lookin' and lookin' for
Something I ain't had before
I'm lookin' and lookin' and lookin' and lookin' to find
Life is short
Filled with stuff
Don't know what for
I ain't had enough
I want some new kind of kick
I want some new kind of kick
I want some new kind of kick
I wa-wa-wa-want
Energy! Bar code! Drano hotshot! Wack attack! Helium! Nitrous oxide! Formaldehyde!
Some new kind of kick
