As Ugly as They Wanna Be is an EP by the American heavy metal band Ugly Kid Joe. It was released in 1991. The title of the album is a parody of 2 Live Crew's 1989 album As Nasty as They Wanna Be.

Two tracks "Madman" and "Everything About You" later appear on the band's 1992 debut album America's Least Wanted with only little changes (new vocal track on "Madman" and spoken intro on "Everything About You"). "Everything About You" later became a hit single, due to its use in the movie Wayne's World.

The track "Sweet Leaf" is a cover of the British heavy metal band Black Sabbath.

This was the first EP that was certified multi-platinum by the R.I.A.A.
