No Fun consisted of Tony Pinotti, Bruce Witsiepe, Tara Key (later of Babylon Dance Band and Antietam, as well as a solo artist), Carty Bledsoe and Dean Thomas, and in the summer of 1978 they recorded a demo tape before splitting up. The group's recordings are available on the Bold Beginnings: Louisville Punk 1978-83 compilation.
3. No Fun, the self proclaimed "Beatles of Surrey", were formed in Surrey, British Columbia, Canada in 1973 and subsequently were related with the punk rock/new wave boom in Vancouver in the late 1970s. Best known in the 1970s and 1980s as the duo of David M and Paul Leahy who released a series of cassette only albums of catchy pop tunes and satirical songs. They also were popular locally for their themed shows (with titles such as "NO FUN on Drugs", "NO FUN in Love". et al). David M still performs solo in Vancouver.

No Fun Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I was a hippie
I was a burnout
I was a dropout
Do you know what's on in my head, I was a surfer
I had a skateboard
I was so hidden man
Wasted
I was so wasted
Wasted
I was a fucked-up
I was a screwed-up
I was a jagged-up
Did you ever get higher than that, I was a build-up
I was a lift-up
I was a jagged-up
I was out of my head, I was so wasted
Wasted
I was so wasted
Wasted
The song "Wasted" by No Fun is an anthem for those who have lost themselves in the haze of substance abuse. The lyrics describe a person who is so high on drugs and alcohol that they have become a shell of who they once were. The singer describes themselves as a hippie, burnout, and dropout, all words that are associated with a lack of motivation and direction. They also mention being a surfer and skateboarder, activities that are often associated with a carefree lifestyle, but in this context, serve as examples of how the singer has lost sight of their identity. The repetition of the word "wasted" in the chorus reinforces the idea that the singer is lost and without purpose.
The verses of the song use a variety of metaphors to describe the singer's state of mind. They describe themselves as "jagged-up," "build-up," and "lift-up," all words that imply a sense of fragmentation or instability. The repetition of the phrase "I was so wasted" serves as a reminder that the singer is no longer in control of their life, and that their substance use has taken over.

LYRICS
[Intro: Polo G]
Uh, uh-uh, uh, uh
Uh, uh-uh, uh
[Chorus: Polo G]
Uh, I know you waitin'
Gettin' fed up, you runnin' out of patience
Just keep your head up, I told you we would make it
Can't give my meds up, I see too many faces, uh
In them foreigns racin'
Best make it count, make sure it's no time wasted
I beat the trenches for my team, that was a great win
Lose when you gave it everything, that's hard to take in (Uh-uh-uh)
[Verse 1: Polo G]
Ayy, look, I do this shit for all my guys that got put under
Fifty shots, I'm a drummer, them guns spit thunder
One shot and he dead, call that bitch the one-hit wonder
No, we don't aim for legs, tryna make it hot all summer
As a small kid, I used to want an H2 Hummer
My uncle did a bid, they could've gave him football numbers
I went from Mandrake daily tryna work on my jumper
Now it's gang-gang, we stay on top of shit like a plunger, uh
Old heads can't trick us, drop rakes and we flick up
Blow his face, get zipped up, ambulance pick up
Uh, red cups full of liquor, let lead bust for my niggas
Come through and tear it up with them blickers, I really fed all of my killers
[Chorus: Polo G]
Uh, I know you waitin'
Gettin' fed up, you runnin' out of patience
Just keep your head up, I told you we would make it
Can't give my meds up, I see too many faces, uh
In them foreigns racin'
Best make it count, make sure it's no time wasted
I beat the trenches for my team, that was a great win
Lose when you gave it everything, that's hard to take in (Uh-uh-uh)
[Verse 2: Future]
Ayy, I'm gettin' fast money 'cause I ain't got no patience
I'm with my team 'cause they cook niggas like bacon
I did my thing trappin' out the spot, it was vacant
Lil' nigga in jail stabbin' shit up like he Jason, uh, uh, uh
Run in a Porsche with some horses like I'm racin'
Bitch so bad look photoshopped when she naked
Made it out the jungle where they scorchin' and blazin'
My dog get money and I get money, it's contagious
Went from a trapper to livin' like a popstar
I done got so rich I'm feedin' my lil' kids caviar
My bitch don't want for shit, she get whatever she want
My shooter walk you down, stand over you, make sure it's done
[Chorus: Polo G]
Uh, I know you waitin'
Gettin' fed up, you runnin' out of patience
Just keep your head up, I told you we would make it
Can't give my meds up, I see too many faces, uh
In them foreigns racin'
Best make it count, make sure it's no time wasted
I beat the trenches for my team, that was a great win
Lose when you gave it everything, that's hard to take in (Uh-uh-uh)
