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
