No Tricks Lyrics - Alice Cooper

No tricks 

Up my sleeve 

I kicked the downs 

And now I'm clean 

No shakes 

Up my spine 

I beat the speed and I 

Dumped the wine 

No tracks 

That was yesterday 

I changed my style 

The way I play 

(Don't you believe it) 

No blues 

No depression 

No more panic 

Or obsession 

Don't you believe 

Anything he said 

All them junkies talk that way 

It's just as bad as it was before 

I see the man knockin' at his back door 

... this kid's straight 

And put on ice 

The street corner deals at any price 

Come on and check my veins 

And check my eyes 

No tracks 

That was yesterday 

I changed my style 

The way I play 

(Don't you believe it) 

No blues 

No depression 

No more panic 

Or obsession 

Some tricks 

Just go away 

And other tricks 

They're here to stay 

(Oh don't you know me) 

Sometimes my spirit's willin' 

The flesh is weak and 

That's what's killin' 

Don't you believe 

Anything he said 

All them junkies talk that way 

It's just as bad as it was before 

I see the man knockin' at his back door 

Hey now this kid's straight 

Put on ice 

The street corner deals at any price 

Come on and check my veins 

And check my eyes 

I tried so hard 

But I'm hurting for another fix 

It's just this habit 

I, I can always kick 

What do you say there friend? 

(Don't you call me..) 

It's just a game 

And I can beat it any day 

No matter what this lovely lady say 

Hey, want to be my friend? 

Some tricks 

They go away 

And other tricks 

They're here to stay 

(Oh don't you know me) 

Sometimes my spirit's willin' 

My flesh is weak and 

That's what's killin' 

Don't you believe 

Anything he said 

All them junkies talk that way 

It's just as bad as it was before 

I see the man knockin' at his back door 

I said this kid's straight 

And put on ice 

The street corner deals at any price 

Come on and check my veins 

And check my eyes
