Somewhere a person is on Facebook
Liking all the Wall Posts he sees
Somewhere a teacher is business minded
Robbing off money as ''fees''
Somewhere a loan shark fishing about
Looking for next sucker who bites
Somewhere one boy is a cissy
While all the other does is fight
Somewhere a drunk is singing
Baila and songs from Shree FM
Somewhere people are gardening
Araliya mal and gotukola stems
Somewhere a woman is in labor
And the doctor is at home asleep
Somewhere in Hikka they're diving
In the coral waters deep
Somewhere a woman gets red notice
For not paying the 'light'' bill
Somewhere in the Angoda hospital
A man refuses to take his pill
Somewhere a kid is sneaking
His way out of a day of school
Somewhere a man is staring
At the clock on the wall like a fool
Somewhere a thug is abusing
Some poor old, innocent soul
Somewhere is Town Hall there's traffic
And busted telephone poles
Somewhere in Mount it's raining
And people in Buba are wet
Somewhere people are buying condoms
To make memories they will regret
Somewhere a car is in a pothole
And some junkie is doing weed
Somewhere a mother is screaming
About a missing glass bead
Somewhere an MP is beating
Up some poor, old man
Somewhere everyone is cheating
Be it at work, at school or an exam
Somewhere in Pettah there is a sarong
That has been expertly stiched
Somewhere people are smiling
And saying ''I'm in Colombo bitch!"'
