This is another smooth Confrey song with inane lyrics on the musical tricks made by band instruments as they engaged an enraptured listener. The cover of the original sheet music announces that Tricks Is The Tune That Sticks, a sentiment heartily endorsed by the editor, and shows a harlequinned dancers in a spotlight surrounded by a quartet of joyful musicians.
Tricks was published by Leo Feist, New York, USA.
A tempo of 150 crotchets/min. is suggested
