Het personage Alice Cooper kreeg toentertijd overal de schuld van. Iedereen was tegen Alice Cooper. Juist dat gegeven trok de jeugd alleen maar meer aan. Toen bedacht Alice Cooper: 'Oké, dan kun je het krijgen ook, van nu af aan ben ik geen aardige kerel meer, handschoenen uit, "no more Mr Nice Guy", waarop men zei: "Wat bedoel je, was je eerst een aardige vent dan? Wat ga je nu dan worden?", maar voor mij was het een grap, het was mooi ironisch: no more Mr Nice Guy.'

Songtekst
{corrected by Adri Verhoef, 02-05-2023}
I used to be such a sweet, sweet thing
'Til 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 gettin' 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 got no friends 'cause they read the papers,
They can't be seen with me and I'm gettin' real shot down
And I'm, I'm getting mean.
No more Mister Nice Guy,
No more Mister Clean,
No more Mister Nice Guy,
They say he's sick, he's obscene.
My dog bit me on the leg today,
My cat clawed my eyes (nice guy)
Ma's been thrown out of the social circle,
And dad has to hide.
I went to church incognito,
When everybody rose.
The Reverend Smith, he
He recognized me,
And punched me in the nose.
He said
No more Mister Nice Guy,
No more Mister Clean,
No more Mister Nice Guy,
He said you're sick, you're obscene.
No more Mister Nice Guy,
No more Mister Clean,
No more Mister Nice Guy,
He said you're sick, you're obscene.
