[Kim ]
wa wa wa wa wa wa wa
no no no no no no no no no
na na na
well we can't take her this week
and her friends all want another speech
hoping for a better day to hear what she's got to say
all about the personality crisis
you got it while it was hot
but now frustration and heartache is what you've got
talking talking talking talking personality personality
now you're trying to be something
now you've got to do something
wanna be someone how wow wow
you must be thinking about the times you did
it took every ounce
well it sure got to be a shame
when you start to scream and shout
you got to contradict all those times
you better flyin' about - it's a butterfly
you got a personality crisis
you got it while it was hot
tell us how you know
frustation and heartache is what you got
coz when i'm talking talking personality personality
yeh yeh yeh yeh
and you're a prima ballerina on a spring afternoon
change on into the wolfman
howling at the moon, awoooh
got a personality crisis
you got it while it was hot
so hot y'know frustration and heartache is what you got
talking 'bout personality
talking / personality
yeah yeah yeah
now with all ing for some fragrant mother nature's sends
your mirror's jammed up for all your friends
personality everything is starting to blend all back to one
personality when your mind starts to bend
personality fashion of a friend
of a friend of a friend of a friend of a friend
personality wondering how celebrities ever met?
tell us about personality crisis you got it while it was hot
he's always had frustration and heartache
is what you got
don't worry
personality crisis please don't cry
personality crisis please don't stop?
cause you walk with personality
talk with personality
