.bash_profile
in your home folder, and open it in your favorite text editor. There you should see a line (or two) setting either the PS1 variable or something like it (maybe PROMPT_COMMAND). If you want to start fresh, just remove the line and restart your terminal. Then you'll hopefully be back to a standard prompt.
