lyrics

_

summer is the time the children come home...

summer is the time the children come home
summer is the time she'll watch them roam
all day through the fields the wheat upto their heads
and when the day is done they'll tumble into their beds

home… now they're home

singing and dancing under the stars
luminous venus and mars

summer is the time the little girls flit like butterflies
in long skirts of cobalt and green their braids flying into their eyes
and the boys will demand endless tractor rides we love you nani they'll say
and she feels like asking but never does why don't you stay

home… now they're home

sweet celebration under the skies
big harvest moon starts to rise

bridge:
singing and dancing under the stars
luminous venus and mars
sweet celebration under the skies
big harvest moon starts to rise

(shainthadu... * sway and dance..)

sweet celebration under the skies
big harvest moon starts to rise

summer is the time
the children come home...

shainthadamma shainthadu * my darling, sway and dance
shayakiliye, shainthadu * swaying parrot, sway...
kutti nilave, shainthadu * twilight hours, ...
kuthu villake, shainthadu * brass lamp, ...
madu purave, shainthadu * cow and pidgeon, ...
mayil kuyile, shainthadu * peacock and koel, ...
shainthadamma, shainthadu * my darling, sway…
shainthadamma, shainthadu * my darling, sway and dance

PINKNOISE Kolkata, India

PINKNOISE, formed in 2006, is the mischievous late night alter-ego to indie pioneers Skinny Alley.

Their debut studio full length, The Dance Of The Diaspora, was released in 2014 after a tumultuous two years during which time the band lost its bassist Gyan Singh to illness.

He is survived by Jayashree Singh (voice, stories), Amyt Datta (guitar, synthesizers) and Jivraj Singh (drums, design).
