lyrics

Chopstick lipstick arithmetic everything’s dandy
Patty cake hoe cake tax break cotton candy
Top notch hop scotch stopwatch chocolate by the pound
See the sounds of color and hear the colors make vivid sound

Ever since she left me spellbound
This whole world is one weird merry-go-round
Wrapping toe-tapping snap your fingers red ribbons and white lace
Knick knack paddy whack cut her slack give the girl some space
A high diddle diddle and a fee fie fiddle diddly dee
The world is full of ghastly ghosts and talkedy trees

Ever since she left me spellbound
This whole world is one weird merry-go-round
Ever since she cast her cursed curse
There’s something strange with the universe

Eeny meany higgledy piggledy eentsy wheentsy drift off to sleep
When the gobbledygook freaky freak does his evil creepety creep
Jabberwocky jibber jockey full of bourbon and rye
You want to get to heaven you better put on your jacket and tie

Ever since she left me spellbound
This whole world is one weird merry-go-round
Ever since she cast her cursed curse
There’s something strange with the universe

Whippersnapper knickerbocker jackrabbits on the loose
Harlequin parliament drinking all the jitterbug juice
A hoonanana jocomo fina nananay
Spy dogs flag boys sparring for one last Mardi Gras day

Ever since she left me spellbound
This whole world is one weird merry-go-round
Ever since she cast her cursed curse
There’s something strange with the universe

about

Cory Seznec image

Cory Seznec Paris, France

Somewhere between musical wanderer and uncertified ethnomusicologist dwells the artist Cory Seznec and his unique world.
A French-American in Paris, Seznec’s fingerstyle guitar-playing is syncopated, polyrhythmic, cross-pollinated, and idiosyncratic. He also sings, plays old-time banjo, and wades in the deep river of American song.
