We are circus ringmasters and we can be found whistling amongst the winds of fairgrounds, in convents, prostitutions, theatres, realities, feelings, restaurants, ohoho, bang bang. We declare that the blues is a feeling that has cosseted us quite enough in the dilatoriness of its abstractions, as have transatlantic liners, noises and ideas. And while we put on a show of being facile, we are actually searching for the central essence of things,
and are pleased if we can hide it; we have no wish to count the windows of the marvelous elite, for FBnCC doesn't exist for anyone, and we want everyone to understand this. This is FBnCC's balcony, I assure you.
From there you can hear all the military marches, and come down cleaving the air like a seraph landing in a public baths to piss and understand the parable.
FBnCC is neither madness, nor wisdom, nor irony, look at me, dear bourgeois. Blues used to be a game of nuts in May, guitarists would go gathering songs that had a final ring, then they would exude, shout out the verse, and dress it up in dolls' bootees, and the verse became a queen in order to die a little, and the queen became a sardine, and the children ran hither and you, unseen... Then came the great ambassadors of feeling, who yelled historically in chorus:
Psychology Psychology hee hee - Science Science Science
Long live Rock - We are not naive - We are successive - We are exclusive
We are not simpletons and we are perfectly capable of an intelligent discussion.
Be we, FBnCC, don't agree with them, for art isn't serious, I assure you, and if we reveal the crime so as to show that we are learned denunciators, it's to please you, dear audience, I assure you, and I adore you.
