Ugly Mix
The B-Side of "Mr. Personality" is the "Ugly Mix" of the song. Technically about the same content, it is completely a different song with different beat arrangement, recorded vocals, and different lyric text and refrain. The structure of the Ugly Mix follows the style of 20 Fingers and Gillette's hit song "Short Dick Man", which has a dance beat instead of a hip hop beat and a rock beat, with minimalistic vocals, the rap verses completely removed and replaced by spoken repeatings such as in the refrain, where it was "Do, Don't, Don't, Don't want no ugly mothersucker" or "I, I, I, I don't think so, I don't think so" ("Eeny, weeny, teeny, weeny" or "Don't, Don't, Don't, Do Do, Don't, Don't, Don't" as it was in "Short Dick Man").
