No Vacancy

Post by jeff robertson »

As performed by FLVXXVM FLORVM

Well there ain't no vacancy in your heart girl
There ain't no room for me inside your life
When we touch I get no sense of trembling
And when we kiss your lips are cold and dry

There's no vacancy
I mean there ain't no room for me
There's no vacancy in your heart.

There's no secret pain that I can heal girl
There's no secret place you like to crawl
I caress your body and you barely move
When we make love you're hardly there at all

(Solo)

Who's the one who's occupied your heart girl?
Who has filled the void that I can't find?
Where's he now and why don't you go with him?
There's nothing I can do to blow your mind.

Theres no vacancy
I mean there ain't no room for me
There's no vacancy in your heart

glennny_ No Vacancy

I’ve been trying to fit
there’s no space for me
it gets confusing with all the
voices in my in an argument
There’s no place that i can stay
there’s no vacancy

Keep my chin up
it’s not that cold
it really only seems rough
might just be getting old

Fortune slipped away from me in a breeze
the chaos in my head is arresting me

I don’t know where I parked
did I really find a space?
I can’t recall who I am
or what it is that I think I drive
I want to sleep but the neon sign tells me
there’s no vacancy

keep my head up
I’m still in one piece
i look at my reflection
is that really me?

I’m more and more confused as the day wears on
there’s clues and clues and clues, but no conclusion

I forget where I live
where I used to call home
I don’t remember my family
I’m lost and alone
I want to go back but then I remember
there’s no vacancy

I once had it all, but that’s all in the past
the days blur together when you’re being harassed

I’m more and more angry
because I can’t understand
why won't anyone find it in their heart to lend me
a helping
hand

Ken's Super Duper Band 'n Stuff

G --C
G G D D
Open up your doors and let me in
It’s been so long I feel estranged
everything was once familiar
open arms and warm embraces

C D
There’s no vacancy
there’s no room for me
only the view of
an empty room

If you want me to stay
make some room
clean out the corner
I’ll be there soon

Chorus
Bm Am Bm Am D D
a pile of books
and the radio
A burning candle
by the window

Solo over verse

Nick M. Soma - No Vacancy

Dreaming, I believe I'm going blind
There's no vacancy for others in my mind
In all this time I think about you
And I think of the times we shared, just us two
And you don't even care, and really, I swear
I'm hollow inside

Even though there isn't any room
For glowing postcards from the moon
For orange leaves and wooden spoons
And Lithuanian cartoons
No room for marbles, beads or pearls
Cute little dolls with fluffy curls
For oatmeal statues or any girls
Apart from you

No vacancy in this hotel called life
The fuzzy feeling's turned to overdrive
Once in a while I think about you
And I think of the times we shared, yes I do
And then at the reception I'm greeted by eyes
That never smile

I'm hollow still, yes, even though
I got a brand new cabrio
An underwater studio
And other things so complex and exotic you won't know
Any of their names
And yet I'm sad, it's such a shame
And there is no one there to blame
Apart from you

No, in my mind there ain't no room
For anything but doom and gloom
No bright green cats that feed on prunes
No air balloons or magic brooms
No room for chairs and teddy bears
And lines and squares and prickly pears
No time to glare or say a prayer
And you don't even care, I swear

No vacancy in this hotel called life
The fuzzy feeling's turned to overdrive
Once in a while I think about you
And I think of the times we shared, yes I do
And then at the reception I'm greeted by eyes
That never smile

The Worldly Self-Assurance

I miss the warm
Light on my face
In this most familiar place

So long ago
It's not like before
Do they even know me anymore

Believe in me

I know when I'm going home there'll be no space for me
I'm lost, alone again, cast out by my family
I know when I'm going home there'll be no vacancy
I'm jetsam, thrown overboard, drifting aimlessly

I'll take my time
Won't bother rushing
I know everyone's discussing

How I have changed
Now I seem strange
And this weight on me is crushing

Believe in me

I know when I'm going home there'll be no space for me
I'm lost, alone again, cast out by my family
I know when I'm going home there'll be no vacancy
I'm jetsam, thrown overboard, drifting aimlessly
