Best response I have heard to this question was from Gordon Bruce:

"If I told you how it was done, I wouldn't be giving you anything. I would be taking something away.'"

You could try the old classic:

'If I told you, the Magic Circle would rip my face off, feed it to their dogs and sell my family as slaves to a wandering troupe of jugglers.'

Look shocked (like this :shock: ) and say "but that would ruin it!" As though they just asked how a film ends halfway through. No clever answers needed.
