Trick of the Wrist - Michael Monroe

I had a nasty habit

it didn't work for me

I shook it off like an apple shaken out of a tree

I used to spend the good times

on cheap company

now I get all my energy for free

Now people tell me I ain't ageing

I'm keeping thin and my looks ain't fading

I take life and I ain't wasting time on no man

Like a trick of the wrist

trick of the wrist

I used to live on the dark side

I used to tow the line

Now I don't give the negative my time

I used to sleep in the daytime

if I was even able to close my eyes

Now I let reality get me high.

I used to burn all my cash gettin' wasted

Now I'm eternally fascinated

Check out the razzamanazz in place

There ain't no persuading

There's trick of the wrist

trick of the wrist

(trick of the wrist)

trick of the wrist

Exactly

I caught a buzz off a morning breaking

I take the trip that the music's taking

I'm on my feet and my heart is racing

Ain't no mystery

It's just trick of the wrist
