Fugazi - Blueprint Lyrics
I'm not playing with you,
I'm not playing with you,
I'm not playing with you,
I clean forgot how to play.
But you can still come around,
Maybe together we can wipe that smile off your face.
'Cause what a difference, what a difference, what a difference
A little difference would make.
We'll draw a blueprint, it must be easy,
It's just a matter of knowing when to say no or yes.
Frustrating, frustrating, always waiting for the bigger axe to fall.
A patient game that I can't find my way to play.
Never mind what's been selling,
It's what you're buying
and receiving undefiled.

Top Ten fave album of the 90s.
I clean forgot how to play.
Happy new year mofo’s!
1.5x better
The best!
хуя шугейз
reminds me of 'gone away' by the offspring... both great tracks, thanks for posting!
this album blew my mind when i was a teenager. it really fed the passion and beliefs i had in my youth when i could not find it around with people my age
This song always reminds me of Novak
Never mind what you're buying, it's what you're selling!
They are hard as nails...
Saw a gig in Italy, probably in mid ‘90.
Only H.Rollins, Bad Brains and Husker Du could play at this level of expression and power...
Is it just me or he sounds like John Frusciante here...
guess who or the other way around, this is nearly 30 years old man
Oh my best years, oh u re right, its all fkn blueprint...what a bend
Will never not be amazing.
the beginning reminds me of obstacle 2 by interpol
Same. I also thought I heard the same intro of "Watch the Corners" byu dinosaur jr, but the melody is totally different
I'm not playing with you
I'm not playing with you
I'm not playing with you, yeah, you
I'm not playing with you
I'm not playing with you
I'm not playing with you, yeah, you
I'm not playing with you
I'm not playing with you
I'm not playing with you
I clean forgot how to play
You’d still come around
In fact I invite you down
Maybe together
We can wipe that smile off your face
'Cause what a difference
What a difference
What a difference
A little difference would make
It’s all blueprints
It must be easy
It's just a matter
Of knowing when to say no or yes
Frustrating, frustrating
Always waiting for the bigger axe to fall
A patient game I can't find my way (hey)
Find my way to play
Not knowing
Never mind what's been selling
It's what you're buying
And receiving undefiled
Never mind what's been selling
It's what you're buying

Never mind what's been selling

Best song ever
Its Ian mcKey !!
That's the lead from minor treat
Ian MacKaye, pronoounced Muh-kai. It has a long "i" w/ its second syllable sounding much like Tai or tie.
Often mispronounced Muh-K. Similiar to the word hay.
me vuela la cabeza esta canción
I'M NOT PLAYIN WITH YOU
30 years ago and still some of the best! Ty Ian
My teen years
Who's here because of Brandon novak
Its a lil past 1am and I just came across this band for the very first time and I am very stoked. Very refreshing to hear something new to the ear thats well worth the time to just drown yourself in their music
Also check out a band called minor threat
And also check out a great band from Santa Cruz... Blast!
Oh! I had forgotten how much I love this song. Good day to remember.
Fuck wow I haven’t been blown away in ages, I have heard of fugazi but never really got round to listening to it
First time heard this song in "Head First" BMX movie by Mat Hoffman, who is btw huge fan of Fugazi and DC hardcore scene and friend with Ian too. I am glad that Riding BMX gave me best experiences not only on bike but also in music taste and brough me to playing bassguitar in a band.
Thank you Novak for introducing me to this. Stay sober brother.
what a band
So timeless. This song will never not be amazing.
i'm not playing with you, yeah you
Timeless
Beatiful fugazy song
Fugazi cool
Let me get my skateboard..just listen to other day!! Send you happiness & love from New Orleans Louisiana.. peace & Music ☆♡☆OpaL♡☆♡
I listen to this and I hear the glam rock elements fly right by most people, the swagger of the 80s is still present in this. Sort of like acdc. IT has anthems for sure. But then it also has post punk and new wave elements, it synthesized all of what was going around into something different. I hate how Guy is tagged with emo yet he seems about as swaggering as any metal guy from the same era, just without the leather pants, long hair and makeup. I've read in many places that he didn't like the tag as it often was hurled in a derisive manner. If anything maybe emo it maybe the ones dressed up in makeup and big hair, lol!!! Like ACDC they never really wrote a ballad...which seems to me the most emo thing of all to do. Nearly every song is a fireburner with explosive and powerful crescendos and decrescendos....much like Rites of Spring in terms of classical music goes not just the post punk name he swiped from Stravinsky! In terms of Spengleresque thinking...yeah I would also prefer to live in the Spring stage of that cycle of history as well. IN a sense post WW2 and the almost total destruction of the west one might say we passed through the Winter phase or Fall phase, though according to Spengler these last far longer...but maybe as a result of technology the cycles are now sped up more?
I am a student of music, I love all kinds...but this is seriously one of the most moving pieces of music I have ever experienced.
then listen to all their other songs! LOL
@mistamowgli Why your not that funny
@Seb Web10 I know you aren't
Fugazi is fucking fantastic what do you expect dude
I was in college when a friend said "hey, check this out but don't turn your reciever up too loud. I didn't listen and I was ultimately blown away! Saw them for ten minutes in 1992ish. Had to leave. Then saw a whole show at Ridglae Theatre. Fucking breathtaking.

Join our group on Facebook: "Fugazi Appreciation Society". Send us a request, and we will add you! Fucking love this band!
that song made me stop eating meat.
"Nevermind what's been selling, it's what you're buying..."
This whole band in General, along with The Smiths and Minor Threat, got me to go vegetarian.
fugazi peony park omaha ne 5 bands 5 bucks when you could see live music on the cheap
I've said before that not only is fugazi just about the greatest band/group/music but also ideologically too.
they call their album repeater for a reason
Damn right
1,2,3,4
es perfecta esta canción loco
one of the best respect fugazi
thanks Ian MacKaye, every song you have done is out of this world !!!! Lana
Guy Picciotto did a lot of the writing as well.
Nuro-Cyon, Bellistar, FUC Tower… 28/5/2481… 13:29.Security Operations and Strategy meeting with the FUC executive committee (Nuro-Cyon division), chaired by Stella Anne Harper.Android Parvis Welby (Senior Operations Director) was addressing the attendees, “Field Intelligence have adjusted their procedures… Phase 4, to destabilise employee insurrections, especially in the mining and fabrication sectors. In summary over the last quarter there has been an upsurge in support for the anti-corporate militancy and the anti-governmental anarchists and terrorists… they are becoming far more emboldened with their attacks… We have drafted rigorous counter measures…” Welby was then interrupted.
“I couldn’t care less for anti-government activists… Anyway… I thought we had fully infiltrated all the prominent organisations to the highest level…?” Stella said dismissively.
“Yes Director we have, but it’s a very fluid situation… The dynamics of the terrorists and their leadership shift around… all the time… we have lost many of our best fixed agents either through defection or detection…”
“So…? Increase recruitment… triple your efforts. There are millions of hungry citizens out there, let us tap some of that raw energy…”Stella said.
“Yes Director.” Welby answered passively as he tapped in notes.
“And let us focus… only upon the anti-corporate insurgences now… let the government fend for themselves… Do we not provide enough favour and credit already… ” Stella looked around the table.
“Yes Director.” The committee agreed.
“I will pacify any dissenting politicians… Er… Do we have any further news on Martha Watkins…? Donna anything?” Stella re-directed her question.
“Yes Director… we have unconfirmed reports that she is being treated for radiation sickness. We are looking into all current and past patient records with related illnesses.” Android Donna Sparks (Senior Special Agent) said.
“Very good… Any other important business before we go through process strategy?”
“Er… Director Harper… cold case… we have solid circumstantial indications that a former internal affairs agent, Maximillian Greaves is possibly here on Nuro Cyon.” Damian Po Xin (Chief Historical Case Officer) said.
“Who is this citizen of interest… explain?” Stella Harper directed her attention to the historical case chief.
“This particular citizen of interest has information that could prove extremely damaging to FUC reputations and interests… We have reason to believe that he is here right now…according to historical records he boarded a freighter with forged I.D.s on Earth fifty years ago heading for Bellistar… the Port-sector…”
Sounds just as awesome today as it did the day it came out. Big respect to Ian MacKaye.
Tim Armstrong did a boss ass cover of this under Tim Timebomb
Wasn't tom Armstrong in Operations Ivy?
i can fart in time...
Joo stoopit
good looks novak
Mat Hoffman started me on listening to Fugazi
Best punk bassist on the planet.
Head First
Only Fugazi song I like
This song, Waiting Room, and Merchandise do it for me. You are not what you own.
the intro to this song was my first journey beyond bar chords. Hearing the variety while not moving my hand up or down the neck was a very "ah-ha!" moment as a kiddo.
?youaregoingtogethit
this song is dope. found it thanks to brandon novak - where's my needle trailer
Never mind what's been selling ......its what your buying!!!!!! They will be in my earbuds when I'm dead n gone on an endless loop just in case I come back 😜👍
well said brother, well said....couldn't agree me
fucking love it
they stuck to their guns. FUGAZI.
I remember listening to this when I was like 7 or 8 on my mp3 player
I remember being in my late teens and listening to this on vinyl and cassette.
I say it holds up in the digital age.
Frustrating, frustrating, always waiting for the bigger axe to fall.
A patient game that i can't find my way to play.
Never mind what's been selling,
It's what you're buying
and receiving undefiled.
Nina Neurotic Inspiring lyrics indeed
+ScariestMovieEver I think this is how we are all feeling right now.
Am i crazy, or does the intro sound like Wrecking Ball by Miley Cyrus?
Anyways, this band is great and they should be a lot more known
+Mihály Ponyiczki Yes, they copied Miley Cyrus.
+Ricky X lmao
It's the 4 chord progression of pop:
I V vi IV
...i think. Not much of a theory guy.
guter song grad das ende - typisch Fugazi
ive babysat the guitarists kid... awesome seeing this guy as a punk rocker and a dad, truly amazing
hardcore againt punkfuck rocker
Im assuming you're talking about guy
Wow a guitarist can be a human being? Creating other human beings? Who would have known
A the guitarists kid, ha 😃
I think The Offspring ripped this song off a little. The melody sounds suspiciously similar to Gone Away.
+Steven Geere but offspring r pigfuckers....
@Rotario Rotatti oh really !! I didn't know that. I'm not a big fan of offspring anyways.. But i'm a fugazi's fan..
well I was singing the main riff this morning and I've discovered that shares the same progression with Mad World from Tears For Fears.
Queef I mean it kinda sounds like a lot of songs.
if heard the melody a lot. the intro chords reminded me of Dinosaur Jr.'s "Watch The Corners" for a little while, but the rest of the song is completely different. Pretty common chord progression actually.
had this in the early nineties. listened to it on the city bus a lot to shut out my surroundings.
maybe my favorite fugazi song
+jackdaw123456 maybe..This album is killer begin to finish
Zalan Pap Mine first.
Check out Tim Armstrong's cover of it... Its prettt good.
Zalan Pap one of so many!
Bieber´s generation
New generation.

best top comment i've read so far! I'll remember and tell that to people who got sick of life.
I like your way of thinking, sir
grandissimi maestri sempre nell'ombra e per questo senza compromessi!!
commento fantastico, ti stimo! saluti dalla croazia...
chorão eterno!
Would have been nice to have had access to music like we do now back when I was 15.
Don't know how the hell I missed out on this band. I was born in 1980 so I have no excuse. I didn't realize how cool I never really was until earlier this year. By far the best band I've found that I never listened to from that era. I heard people mention Fugazi but never had money to just spend on CDs of bands I liked much less bands I may or may not have liked.
Tremendo intro !
best 5 bucks anyone could have ever spent...
Que buena intro la re puta madre que la re mil pario
A blueprint is something for engineers, and engineers are given problems to solve, and to solve those problems they create blueprints, at first they are rough, but then become clearer after adjustments. A blueprint for helping people will never be there, but you can always imporve it, or what you do for others, and the good resulting from a small change could be huge.
"what a difference a little difference would make"
listened to this tape till i broke it. love the raw sound like you're in the room and their just jamming.
One of the best yankee bands ever.
Fugazi could have easily sold out to sell out arenas, but they were better than that.
gotta say this is one of those tape trades i'll never forget . i had 2 Vacant Andys demos copied onto one tape - The Days are Numbered and Slam Manual - anyways i traded that awesome demo for this brilliant rock and roll tape- i always think of fugazi as rocking band with punk rock and jazz moments - not this indie or post rock genre everyone seems to group them with.
what the hell does that have to do with the song
What a difference... a little difference would make.
I don't care about whats been selling....I care about what I'm buying and receiving it undefiled....
I'm an overweight, greasy haired underachieving nerd with a stammer and yet I still feel like an absolutely massive badass when that outtro comes.
Best US punk band ever, scrap that, best punk band ever - remained true to their ideals throughout.
still stirs the soul.
this song is SOO hot. as a chick, seriously, fugazi gets you in the mood. firreal dudes.
Fucking beautiful man.
Havent listened to this track in a while----Wow!
This song took my soul's virginity. In the best possible way.
i dont write music i dont play in a band, i play my acoustic and this song inspired so many of my songs, the riff is endless
One of my Favorites!!!
Great song.
