A cover of the Alice Cooper classic, originally recorded for the soundtrack of *Shocker* (1989). The song is about **rebellion and abandoning a mild-mannered public persona** after facing harsh judgment and unfair treatment.

Lyrics
**No more Mister nice guy** **Me? A nice guy? Yeah, right!** I used to be such a **sweet, sweet thing** Till they **got a hold of me** I **opened doors for little old ladies** I **helped the blind to see** I got **no friends 'cause they read the papers** They **can't be seen with me** And I'm **gottin' real shot down** And I'm **feeling mean** **No more Mister nice guy** **No more Mister clean** **No more Mister nice guy** They say **he's sick, he's obscene** I'm **not hard to get along with** **Ha, I'm impossible!** My **dog bit me on the leg today** My **cat clawed my eye** My **mom's been thrown out of the society circle** My **dad's had to hide** I **went to church incognito** And **everybody rose**, the **reverend Smith** He **recognized me** **Punched me in the nose** **No more Mister nice guy** **No more Mister clean** **No more Mister nice guy** They say **he's sick, he's obscene** Not to say I was **ever nice in the first place, ya know**
