"Splash 1 (Now I'm Home)" is a 1966 single from the band 13th Floor Elevators from their album The Psychedelic Sounds of the 13th Floor Elevators. It was a minor regional hit in Texas but became a bigger (albeit still relatively minor) regional hit a year later when covered by the Clique. It has also been covered by Bongwater and The Mighty Lemon Drops.

The song's lyrics reflect a mystical connection between the singer and a woman, inspired by a meeting with Janis Joplin. The 13th Floor Elevators were pioneers of the psychedelic rock genre, and "Splash 1" is a great example of their innovative sound.
