It’s about a player, who’s also her lover, playing victim and trying to have a place in her life. But she’s opened her eyes and she doesn’t let him get in anymore.
[Verse 1]
You know a player who could ever keep a promise?
Well, if you do, now baby, you're not being honest
I hear your sweet talk, dripping to the static
And I ain't gonna let you, I ain't gonna let you in
Telling me your only crime is your big heart
Baby, baby, who you really tryna outsmart?
Don't you know I know a little thing or two?
So I ain't gonna let you, I ain't gonna let you in
[Pre-Chorus]
Ooh, I ain't gonna let you, I ain't gonna let you in
I don't think you're ready for my love
I ain't gonna let you
[Chorus]
No, no, no, no, no, no vacancy (vacancy)
No, no, no, no, no, no more you and me (you and me)
Ain't got no room for you
Just doom and gloom for you
No, no, no, no, no, no vacancy (vacancy)
[Verse 2]
I can hear your heavy breathing down my inner calm
I know exactly where you've been and where you're coming from
Busy working to convince me you're the victim
But I ain't gonna let you, I ain't gonna let you in
'Cause I want something real this time
Nothing good turning bad on a dime
I hear your sweet talk, baby, turning frantic
I ain't gonna let you, I ain't gonna let you in
[Pre-Chorus]
Ooh, I ain't gonna let you, I ain't gonna let you in
I don't think you're ready for my love
I ain't gonna let you
[Chorus]
No, no, no, no, no, no vacancy (vacancy)
No, no, no, no, no, no more you and me (you and me)
Ain't got no room for you
Just doom and gloom for you
No, no, no, no, no, no vacancy (vacancy)
[Bridge]
I don't think you're ready for my love
I don't think you can handle a good thing
I don't think you're ready for my love
Can't have the cookie and eat it too
If you're wanting me back
Gotta leave them all behind
You wanna get in
I ain't gonna let you
[Chorus]
No, no, no, no, no, no vacancy (I ain't gonna let you)
No, no, no, no, no, no more you and me
Ain't got no room for you
Just doom and gloom for you
No, no, no, no, no, no vacancy (I ain't gonna let you)
[Outro]
No, no, no, no, no, no more you and me
Ain't got no room for you
Just doom and gloom for you
No, no, no, no, no, no vacancy (vacancy)

“No Vacancy” handlar om min nuvarande pojkvän.. Nu är allt jättebra, men han var lite av en player när vi började ses, kan man nog säga. Delar av texten är direkta citat från honom, så jag tänker att jag får tacka honom för det – han gav mig en bra låt! När jag skrev den var vi redan tillsa...
