Quotes

• “People that haven't seen us yet are shocked because they think that Alice Cooper must be a female folksinger. They don't expect the whole thing. And the whole thing is a direct product of television and movies and America, 'cause that's where America's based. That's where their heart is from the sex and violence of TV and the movies, and that was our influence.”
• “How old are you? Sixteen? S-seventeen? [asks security guard] Is seventeen legal?”
• “Well we can't salute ya Can't find a flag If that don't suit ya That's a dragSchool's out for summer School's out forever School's been blown to pieces.”
• “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.”
• “Man's got his woman to take his seed He's got the power — oh She's got the need She spends her life through pleasing up her man She feeds him dinner or anything she can. She cries alone at night too often He smokes and drinks and don't come home at all. Only women bleed...”
• “Mistakes are part of the game. It's how well you recover from them, that's the mark of a great player.”
