About I Want a New Drug

"I Want a New Drug" is a song by American rock band Huey Lewis and the News from their third album Sports. It was released as the second single from the album, following the top-ten hit "Heart and Soul" in January 1984. The single reached number six on the U. S. Billboard Hot 100 and topped the Dance Club Play chart. The song, a love song wherein the word "drug" is purposely left as an open-ended meaning to the listener, became one of the band's signature songs.

I want a new drug 
One that won't make me sick 
One that won' make me crash my car 
Or make me feel three feet thick

I want a new drug 
One that won't hurt my head 
One that won't make my mouth too dry 
Or make my eyes too red

[Chorus]
One that won't make me nervous 
Wondering what to do 
One that makes me feel like I feel when I'm with you 
When I'm alone with you

I want a new drug 
One that won't spill 
One that don't cost too much 
Or come in a pill

I want a new drug 
One that won't go away 
One that won't keep me up all night 
One that won't make me sleep all day

[Chorus]

I'm alone with you baby

I want a new drug 
One that does what it should 
One that won't make me feel too bad 
One that won't make me feel too good

I want a new drug 
One with no doubt 
One that won't make me talk too much 
Or make my face break out

[Chorus]
