"No More Mr. Nice Guy" was the third single off Billion Dollar Babies, the Alice Cooper band's sixth album, in 1973, and it's the sound of a band enjoying the outrage it caused. Alice Cooper and guitarist Michael Bruce wrote it, and the lyric is Cooper's answer to his mother's church group and their reaction to his stage shows: there were worse things he could be doing, and from here on he wasn't pulling punches.

Bob Ezrin produced, and the band plays it as a strutting, sneering romp, with Bruce and Glen Buxton on guitars, Dennis Dunaway on bass and Neal Smith on drums, and Bruce, Dunaway and Smith piling on the backing vocals. It went to number 10 in the UK and helped push the album to number one on both sides of the Atlantic. It has stayed a live favorite ever since, and later turned up in Dazed and Confused.
