Tricks told to a lover
Tricks sold to another
Tricks rolled undercover

Tricks taught to a loser
Tricks bought by a bruiser
Tricks sought by a user

Tricks turned on a sixpence
Tricks learned for a pittance
Tricks burned and good riddance

A trick of skin
A trick of the light
A trick of sin
A trick of the night

Not the most stunning piece but a solid, well structured piece with a rhyming scheme that actually flows fairly well. While I found some of the words felt tacked on to fit the scheme the overall message and style rings clear. It's darkly humorous at the same time. Keep it up.

Give me the beat boys and free my soul! I wanna getta lost in ya rock n' roll and drift away. Drift away...
