Soundtrack/No Vacancy Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Never thought that I'd be fighting you
But you stole my heart you cheated and lied
You weren't in my corner you weren't on my side
The gloves are off you hit below the belt
Now it's time out baby and they've rung the bell
I'm not a fighter I'm lover but if you run then run for cover
Fight for your love yeah!
When it's around you girl I'm coming out strong
I know when to count you down from ten
I'll find you in my lovin' arms again
The gloves are off you hit below the belt
Now it's time out baby and they've rung they bell
I'm not fighter I'm a lover but if you run then run for cover
Fight for your love yeah!
I'm not a fighter I'm a lover but if you run then run for cover
Fight for your love yeah!
The lyrics to Soundtrack/No Vacancy's song "Fight" convey a message of love and the struggles that come with it. The first verse begins with the assertion that the ring of love is where the true meaning lies. However, the singer never anticipated having to fight the person they love. The reason for this unexpected fight stems from the other person's betrayal - they stole the singer's heart, cheated, and lied. It is revealed that they were not in the singer's corner and did not support them. The gloves are off, meaning it's time to get serious, and the other person hit below the belt. This signifies they likely engaged in shady or underhanded behavior that hurt the singer. The song then imparts that the time is up, and a fight is necessary to defend the love they have. Even though the singer is primarily a lover and not a fighter, they will still make their stand and, if they need to, they'll run for cover.
The second verse suggests that when the singer is around the person they love, they feel strong. This indicates that the feeling of being in love empowers them. They can count down the other person from ten, most likely indicating that they can be forgiving, but the other person needs to show real effort to gain back their trust and affection. The gloves being off and the time out mean that the singer needs to take a break to evaluate the relationship's situation. Again, the statement of not being a fighter but a lover emphasizes the main character's affinity for love. If the other person realizes how important the relationship is and wants to make it work, they should fight for it.
Overall, the song's lyrics suggest that love is a crucial aspect of life, but it requires hard work to maintain it. The message is that when one partner is not doing their part or is betraying the other, a fight is necessary to keep the love alive. The singer is a lover and not a fighter, but they are willing to fight to protect their love.

Em nosso anel de amor está o que é seu verdadeiro
In our ring of love is what your true
Nunca pensei que estaria lutando com você
Never thought that I'd be fighting you
Mas você roubou meu coração você me traiu e mentiu
But you stole my heart you cheated and lied
Você não estava do meu lado, você não estava do meu lado
You weren't in my corner you weren't on my side
As luvas estão fora de você bateu abaixo da cintura
The gloves are off you hit below the belt
Agora é o tempo limite, baby e eles tocaram a campainha
Now it's time out baby and they've rung the bell
Eu não sou um lutador, sou amante, mas se você correr, corra para se proteger
I'm not a fighter I'm lover but if you run then run for cover
Lute pelo seu amor, sim!
Fight for your love yeah!
Quando estou perto de você, garota, estou saindo forte
When it's around you girl I'm coming out strong
Eu sei quando contar você de dez
I know when to count you down from ten
Eu vou te encontrar em meus braços amorosos novamente
I'll find you in my lovin' arms again
As luvas estão fora de você bateu abaixo da cintura
The gloves are off you hit below the belt
Agora é o tempo limite, baby e eles tocaram a campainha

School of rock seriously has the best soundtrack. If I didn't watch this movie as a kid I probably wouldn't like rock or be playing guitar.
