1. PERSONALITY CRISIS
Well we can't take it this week
And her friends don't want another speach
Hoping for a better day to hear what she's got to say
All about that Personality Crisis you got it while it was hot
But now frustration and heartache is what you got
That's why they talk about Personality
But now your tryin' to be some no you got to do some
Wanna be someone who cow wow wows
But you think about the times you did they took every ounce
When it sure got to be a shame when you start to scream and shout
You got to contradict all those times you were butterflyin' about
All about that Personality Crisis you got it while it was hot
But now frustration and heartache is what you got
And your a prima ballerina on a spring afternoon
Change on into the wolfman howlin' at the moon
All about that Personality Crisis you got it while it was hot
But now frustration and heartache is what you got
Now with all the crossin' fingers that mother nature says
Your mirrors get jammed up with all your friends
That personality everything starts to bend
Personality when your mind starts to bend
Personality impression of a friend,
Of a friend, of a friend, of a friend, of a friend
Personality wonderin how celebrities ever met
Look and find out on television
Personality Crisis you got it while it was hot
Frustration and heartache is all you got don't you worry
Personality Crisis please don't cry
It's just a Personality Crisis please don't stop
Because you walk a Personality
Talk a Personality
2. LOOKING FOR A KISS
I always seen you, just before the dawn
When all the other kids, where just draggin' along
I couldn't believe the way it seemed to be
Rememberin' the things, you used to say to me
About...
You know I can't be wastin time
Cus gotta get my fun
I got to keep on movin'
Cant stop 'til it's all done
Listen when I tell ya, you got no time for fix
Cus I just gotta make it, cant afford to miss
And there's one reason, I'm tellin' you this
I feels bad....
And I'm lookin for a kiss
Why wontcha tell me, why those kids are moving so slow
Is it just because they dont have no place to go
When the day starts breakin, the sun is gonna shine
It's hard to sleep, when I been cryin'
And...
All you ladies are on
Yor way to church (I'm beggin)
Will I just be a roamin'
Lookin' for the thing that I search
Listen when I tell ya, you got no time for fix
Cus I just gotta make it, cant afford to miss
And there's one reason, I'm tellin' you this
I feels bad....
And I'm lookin for a kiss
Well I been lookin for a real hot kiss...
You think it's bad, but you know that its true
So why don't let me live baby
When I'm lookin for a kiss
When everyone goes to your house, they shoot up in your room
Most of them are beautiful, but so obsessed with gloom
I aint gonna be here, when they all get home
They're always lookin' at me, they wont leave me alone
I didnt come here, lookin for no fix (I know...)
I been houndin the street all night late baby
Justa lookin' for a kiss
I been fixin' a kiss
I didn't come here, lookin for no fix (I know...)
I been haulin' booty, all night long
Just lookin' for a kiss
3. VIETNAMESE BABY
When I'm getting home to you
I gotta show you what I can do
But everything connects and that ain't nowhere
Well, but maybe they're just giving you all you've ever wanted
And maybe you never ever know what that was
And maybe you're just finding it out now
With a Vietnamese baby on your mind
Technology satellite, well
What's wrong today and why was
Everyone so busy they've forgotten why they're playing
That he said, what's wrong today is what wrong with you
You're so solid, busy solid, that's all you do
With a Vietnamese baby on your mind
Your pretty little mind
Catch me your slaves, shot at
Every riffle on the way and I gotta
Show you more mustard gas than any girl ever seen
Since I been blasted, I've been blown, I've been backing away
You've got to back it away
You've got to take a search of values, yeah
But I've got a concert out to play
With a Vietnamese baby on your mind
Your pretty little mind
Your pretty little mind
When I'm getting home to you
I've got to show you what I can do
But everything connects and that ain't nowhere
No no no baby no nowhere
It just won't give a no
I'm talking about your overture
Talking bout your overture
Got to shout about your overture
Now that it's over, now that it's over
Now that it's over, what ya gonna do?
4. LONELY PLANET BOY
It's hard,
It's so hard
And it's a lonely planet joy
When the song from from the other boys
That's when I'm a lonely planet boy
And I'm tryin, Baby for your love
Oh, you pick me up
Your outta drivin' in your car
When I tell you where I'm goin'
You're always tellin' me it's to far
But how could you be drivin'
Down by my home
When ya know, I ain't got one
And I'm, I'm so all alone
Oh it's a lonely planet joy
When the song from your other boys
That's when I'm a lonely planet boy
And I'm tryin', I'm cryin'
Baby for your love
Whoa, whoa, whoa, yeah
Oh, It's so lonely
Oh can't you hear me callin'
I'm a thousand miles away
And I don't wanna stay
I'm thinkin words I gotta say
Cus I wanna be there witcha
And I know what to bring
I remember, from the days
You got over, everything
Oh it's a lonely planet joy
When the song from your other boys
That's when I'm a lonely planet boy
And I'm tryin, I'm cryin,
Can't ya see I'm dyin'
Baby, for your love
Whoa, whoa, whoa, yeah
Now you are lonely
5. FRANKENSTEIN
Something must have happened over Manhattan
Who can expound all the children this time
Could they ever, could they ever
Expect such a Frankenstein, Frankenstein
I remember when you were jammin'
You worked at 'em and any of them
There was never nothing you would eve understand
But you know who was there to be your master
Making his demands and plans
As though he's making his friends
And when those plans they don't mix your style
You get a feeling of your own ordeal
That's when he starts calling you, wow
Bud, you just don't know what to do
So now you come around here
And you're trying to take over the town
Just because of back home, baby
Oh, he puts you down
Oh, baby, how he puts you down
I know they put you down
So now, you're off starting 'round here
Here you ask and demand
In a place where they don't expect nothing
You're trying not to dirty your hands
When asking you as a person
Is it a crime, is it a crime
For you to fall in love with Frankenstein
Is it wrong, could it be wrong
Wrong, baby, don't you want a friend
Cause you're trying to be so selective
You never realize the whole time
Who's the one you're loving
Misunderstood like a Frankenstein
And down, down, down, just go just down
Like Frankenstein, like Frankenstein
So now you're telling me
What everytime you can get down home
Well don't you know there's place, it is my home
So where am I gonna go
You know, when you don't expect nothing
You know, when you're not alone, you know you're not alone
Cause something must have happened over them higher
Who can expound all the children this time
Could you ever, could you ever
Expect such a Frankenstein, Frankenstein, Frankenstein
And all this shoes are too big
And house jacket's too small
How you don't know Frankenstein
We're asking you as a person
Is it a crime, is it a crime
For you to fall in love in with Frankenstein
Wrong, could it be wrong
Baby, don't you want a friend
Well, Frankenstein, oh, Frankenstein
You're gonna get it, you're gonna get it
You're gonna get it, from Frankenstein
That's what I'm gonna shout about
Gonna scream about, I'm gonna shout about
Scream about, shout about a Frankenstein
Frankenstein, Frankenstein, Frankenstein
I've gotta ask you one question
Do you think that you could make it with Frankenstein?
6. TRASH
Trash, won't pick it up
Take them lights away
Trash, won't pick it up
Dont take your life away
Trash, don't try to take my life away
And please dontcha ask me if I love you
If you dont know what I'm doin (Whatcha know is)
Those are all the lines,
Some repeated more, sometimes different wording
Cus I dont know if I do
Cus the way that I feel with you
And take a lovers leap with you
And go to fairyland with you
Go to heaven blue with you
I just dont know if I do
I just dont know if I do
Uh, how do call your lover boy?
7. BAD GIRL
A new bad girl, who get on my block

9. PILLS
As I was lyin' in a hospital bed
A rock 'n' roll nurse went into my head
She says, hold ya arm, stick out ya tounge
I gots some pills I'm gonna give you some
She went into my head, into my head
A rock 'n' roll nurse, went into my head
Into my head, into my head
While I was lyin' in a hospital bed
A little pill for my legs
But that didn't ache
I tried some pills for my heart
But a little too late
Gots some pills for my love
To put me at ease
Ats when a rock 'n' roll nurse
Shook me down to my knees
She went into my head, shoved into my head
A rock 'n' roll nurse went into my head
Into my head, into my head
As I was lyin' in a hospital bed
I got the rock 'n' roll nurse...
Nursey nursey,
Well I don't understand what your doin' to me
Said ya give me the pills
Then ya give me the shot
Got me wonderin' what is worse I got
She went into my head, shoved into my head
A rock 'n' roll nurse went into my head
Into my head, into my head
As I was lyin' in a hospital bed
I got the rock 'n' roll nurse
She's a makin it worse
Keep shootin' it right
To my head...
Doctor doctor! Run here and see
I don't think the jov the nurse is givin' me
Gives me the shots, gives me the pills
Got me takin' this junk, against my wills
She went into my head, shoved into my head
A rock 'n' roll nurse went into my head
Into my head, into my head
As I was lyin' in a hospital bed

11. JET BOY
Whoso fly up in the sky
Faster than any boy could ever describe
Whos got that love so deep
And everything alive
I said
Jet Boys fly
Jet Boys gone
Jet Boy stole my baby
Flyin' around New York City so high
Like he was my baby
Think the kinda place where no one cares
What your livin' for
And Jet Boys so preoccupied
He don't care 'bout before
That's why
Jet Boys fly
Jet Boys gone
Jet Boy stole my baby
Flyin' around New York City so high
Like he was my baby
My baby....
Jet Boys fly
Jet Boys gone
Jet Boy stole my baby
Flyin around New York City so high
Like he was my baby
We was all endangered charms
Swear we're havin' fun
And Jet Boy knows all we done
That's why he's the one
That's why
Jet Boys fly
Jet Boys gone
Jet Boy stole my baby
Flyin' around New York City so high
Like he was my baby
My pretty baby
My pretty pretty baby
My pretty baby
When I first came around this dump
I knew I couldn't stay
Cus up above the world are Jet Boy
That's why I gotta play
Dontcha know that
Jet Boys fly
Jet Boys gone
Jet Boy stole my baby
Flyin around New York City so high
Like he was my baby
Jet Boys fly
And ya know he's gone
I said he been gone,
Gone, gone gone
And he been flyin'
And he been flyin'
He been flyin'
He been flyin'
Baby up all night
Baby New York City
Baby so so high
Baby so so high
Dontcha know that
Like he was my baby
