No Vacancy:Neil Sedaka.
Flip side of The Diary - 1958.
INTRO: -
#1.
I m livin in a house on the other
side of town.
They re makin a highway so they re
rippin my buildin down.
I gotta find a place, within a week..
or else I ll be sleepin out on the street.
Woe is me, I m lookin for a vacan..cy.
CHORUS:
All day long I m walkin round (no vacancy)..
walkin up and walkin down (no vacancy)..
I ve been searchin round the town (no vacancy)..
no apartment to be found (no vacancy)..
on my dishwasher s pay (can t find a place to stay)
#2.
I found myself a place but the rent sure
is a crime.
It s a cold water flat that was built in
Lincoln s time.
The paint is peelin right off of the wall..
good golly, the bathroom is in the hall.
Woe is me, I m lookin for a vacan..cy.
(INTERLUDE:SAX:) ..
#3.
I could budget myself, scrimp and save to
get along.
But it ain t no fun givin up wine, women
and song.
So, I ll have a roof up above my head..
but under those conditions I would rather
be dead.
Woe is me, I m lookin for a vacan..cy.
CHORUS:
All day long I m walkin round (no vacancy)..
walkin up and walkin down (no vacancy)..
I ve been searchin round the town (no vacancy)..
no apartment to be found (no vacancy)..
on my dishwasher s pay (can t find a place to stay)
OUTRO:
All day long I m walkin round (no vacancy) (x5)(Fade.)
