about

The track showcases Amanda’s playful nature and signature sass, with the lyric dismantling a no-good, no-chance beau: “I’d rather sleep alone tonight, than have a second best by side, that’s you...”

"Originally, we just had the title ‘No Thanks’. We worked our way back from there, and I think it just naturally turned into a song about being able to shut things down quickly – to get in, get out, and say ‘you’re no good for me, you are trouble’.”

lyrics

You run, you run
To find yourself
Faster than a mind
Could make a living, a living

I go, I go
For dirty gold
But all I want
Is shimmer in my soul, in my soul

I’d rather sleep alone tonight
Than have a second-best beside me
You, that’s you
I reckon it’s a choice of mine
To leave your selfish heart behind
That’s you

So let’s be honest
This love is not a good thing
Get off it while we’re on it
Maybe it’s a trick I play
You know it’s a game, so I say

No thanks
You won’t get a second chance
There’s no sign of a heartbreak
I know you’re trouble
So no thanks, no thanks
Guess it’s off before it started
Nothing ever is forever
This is the end
So no thanks

The way you talk mess up my mind
Make me believe that we are something special
This ain’t a thing, this ain’t for me
We were good for a while,
Now I leave you behind and say goodbye, bye bye

Let me be honest
This love is not a good thing
I’m on it, I’ll get off it
Maybe it’s a trick I play
You know it’s a game, so I say

No thanks
You won’t get a second chance
There’s no sign of a heartbreak I know you’re trouble
So no thanks, no thanks
Guess it’s off before it started
Nothing ever is forever
This is the end
So no thanks

So let’s be honest
This love is not a good thing
Get off it while we’re on it
Maybe it’s a trick I play You know it’s a game, so I say

No thanks
You won’t get a second chance
There’s no sign of a heartbreak I know you’re trouble
So no thanks, no thanks
Guess it’s off before it started
Nothing ever is forever
This is the end
So no thanks
