No Use for a Name (often abbreviated NUFAN) was a punk rock band from San Jose, California. They were formed in 1987 by Tony Sly and Rory Koff. The band is highly praised in the skate punk and hardcore scenes, though their sound has evolved considerably through the years, taking on a much lighter and poppier brand of melodic punk.
NUFAN's debut album, Incognito, was released in 1990 through New Red Archives. The band has released a single and one more full-length on this label, until signing up with Fat Mike's label, Fat Wreck Chords, on 1993.

Verse 1: C#m Let me introduce myself G#m my name is no concern G# The room is filled C#mB with superficial voices A As the smoke clears I can B see one hundred little lies G# Racing to the finish for AB a consolation prize
Chorus 1: E I want to be wrong G#m I wish that I was C#m uncertain just B/EbA like yesterday E This is not who I am G#m been planning my escape A So long now that my B C#m G#-F#m-A-G#m <--Bass Solo map looks like a maze
Verse 2: C#m Always on the dark side G#m of a pessimistic moon G# Or burning in the sun C#mB of what they're saying A If you have the foresight B can you read between the G# lines? Finger two and four AB inviting fingers one and five
Chorus 2: E To be in this song G#m it's nothing I can shut off C#mB/EbA But I think it's my place E To let you know I know that G#m all your plans are fake A And what you give me B C#m-- x8 I could never take
Bridge: EB Are you confusing me with C#m someone else you hardly even G#A know? I'm sitting here observing B and more often I am learning G#/C That you are an artist and C#mAAm this is your show so sing it
Chorus 3: E I want to be wrong but G#m what did i really think C#mB/EbA That this could become real? E Now writing in cliches G#m to learn from my mistakes A But how much of you B C#m-- x4 could anyone take?
