NO FUN Lyrics
- Lyrics
- Meaning
[Intro: Tom DeLonge]
It's gotten crazy as heart attack
At a rich girl's party but I'm stuck out back
I'm locked outside, inside my mind
I've got to know, is this my life?
We saw the summer in our photographs
Planned out the future, said we won't look back
Now all that news, that dream ain't true
So, hey, fuck me, and fuck you too
[Verse 1: Tom DeLonge]
The days are so dramatic, a little tragic
Whatever happened to us since the 90s?
When punk was independent, and then it wasn't
When everyone became a part of that scene
The internet was taking off
Showing off a thousand other millionaires and silicone things
Fuck, we really set it off, and pissed them off
Touring in the band when I was only eighteen
[Pre-Chorus: Tom DeLonge]
If you wanna try again, now and then you're alone
But no longer eighteen, I know you're nervous sometimes
It's a game, do you know what I mean?
[Chorus: Tom DeLonge]
There's no fun anymore
Nothing to do, nothing to see
No fun anymore
Everyone's bored 'cause we cut off their wings
No fun anymore
[Verse 2: Tom DeLonge]
Your plan was overrated and when you made it
'Cause you were young, you wouldn't know a damn thing
A marriage simulated, will get deflated
The friends you have will have a kid and never be seen
Your job is never good enough or cool enough
There's never passion in a deadly routine
Secretly I say it, yeah, I'll admit it
I kind of think that I just did the same thing
[Pre-Chorus: Tom DeLonge]
If you wanna try again, now and then you're alone
But no longer eighteen, I know you're nervous sometimes
It's a game, do you know what I mean?
[Chorus: Tom DeLonge]
There's no fun anymore
Nothing to do, nothing to see
No fun anymore
Everyone's bored 'cause we cut off their wings
No fun anymore
Changing the drug, leaving the speed
No fun anymore
And everything sucks when you're swimming upstream
No fun anymore
[Intro: Tom DeLonge]
In the intro, Tom DeLonge reflects on the chaotic nature of life, comparing it to a heart attack at a party. He feels isolated and trapped within his own mind, questioning if this is what his life has become. The imagery of summer memories and broken dreams highlights the contrast between the past's hopeful plans and the current reality, filled with anger and disillusionment.
[Verse 1: Tom DeLonge]
Tom DeLonge reminisces about the 90s, a time when punk was raw and independent. He reflects on how the internet and commercialization changed the scene, making everything feel artificial. Touring with the band at eighteen was a rebellious thrill, but now, looking back, he realizes how things have shifted, and the energy of the past seems lost.
[Pre-Chorus: Tom DeLonge]
In this section, Tom addresses the longing to recapture the past while acknowledging the realities of aging. He recognizes the nervousness that comes with trying to relive those moments, understanding that the game of life has changed, and it's no longer as simple as it once was.
[Chorus: Tom DeLonge]
The chorus emphasizes the central theme of the song: there's no fun anymore. Life has become mundane, with nothing exciting or new to offer. The loss of freedom and creativity is palpable, as people feel trapped and unable to enjoy life the way they once did.
[Verse 2: Tom DeLonge]
Here, Tom critiques the overrated plans and expectations of youth. He points out how life becomes a repetitive cycle, with jobs that lack passion and friendships that fade away. Secretly, he admits that he's fallen into the same trap, doing the very things he once rebelled against, highlighting the inescapable nature of routine.
[Pre-Chorus: Tom DeLonge]
This pre-chorus reinforces the idea that trying to relive the past is a challenge. Tom recognizes the fear and hesitation that come with it, acknowledging that the game of life has evolved, and it's harder to navigate as time goes on.
[Chorus: Tom DeLonge]
The chorus repeats the sentiment of lost fun and excitement. Life has become dull, with nothing left to stimulate or inspire. The imagery of cutting off wings and swimming upstream captures the struggle of trying to find joy in a world that seems to have lost its spark.
