Went to the doctor when I was a teen
Had a bad, bad pain down below my spleen
She checked me out, said I was normal
Said all of these symptoms were simply hormonal
You might have bloating and bleeding and mood swings
A backache, a head ache, zits and some cramping
Sometimes your thinking might get a bit hazy
But that doesn't mean you're gonna go crazy
On the way home momma said to me
?It only gets worse girl, wait and see?
She swerved left, but meant to go right
She hit a cop in broad daylight
Momma had never been in a crash
She said it was due to a damn hot flash
She talked her way quickly out of that mess
By pleading something clever about PMS
Went to the doctor when I was late-thirty's
My thoughts were obscene, distorted and dirty
I went in asking if I could have Prozac
She said it was estrogen I lack
She said you have to pay that monthly bill
Now go home and take that hormone pill
And deal with it as best you can
Cause thats the price you pay for being a woman
Well on the way home there was a crash
Right in the middle of my hotflash
The cop took my license and looked at my age
Then he put me in the back seat behind a cage
I couldn't think of anything less
So I used momma's line about PMS
He said ?Hey woman, that's not the cause
Cuz at your age lady, it's menopause?
I got a hotflash, my body's in pain
A hotflash, gonna drive me insane
Spent thirty years dealin? with the feminine rap
And I really can't wait to be done with this crap
(Repeat Chorus)
I got a hotflash
I got a hotflash
You know my hotflash
Well my hotflash
I got a hotflash, drives me insane
I got a hotflash, body's in pain
I got a hotflash, drives me insane
I got a hotflash
