lyrics

Like the twin fools who guard the town from no one, from no one
Cayou waits for his time, twiddling his thumbs, twiddly dumb
Setting sail with the anchor down, blowing horns that make no sound
Cayou Stone your world’s about to be undone
He think he’s been digging up this earth so long
That he’s heard every word, sung every song
Between you and me, the heaven of his misery
Is just that he can’t tell right from wrong

Cayou Stone
Time to beat it on home
There’s wood on the fire, dog’s chewing a bone
Quit heading out on your own

Cayou Stone you gotta shoot for the sun
Quit looking for answers in your doldrums
If the blind don’t question what the seeing see
The grass will turn blue and the sky green
Leave no stone unturned until the work is done

Conclusions drawn from coincidence
Without recognizing your own footprints
Quit climbing mountains to tell byzantine lies
Stay on the ground and look me straight in the eyes
Dear Cayou you’re not the only one in doubt

Cayou Stone
Time to roll on home
There’s wood on the fire, dog’s chewing a bone
Quit heading out on your own

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.
