Survival in middle school

Methmi Mandara 2007 (Matara)

Alarm rings as cock a doodle doo
Mama shouts get ready for school
Jumped out of bed and wore uniform soon
Went to the bus as fast as to moon

I was already late I knew
Others came from morning dew
Guys were around me but few
Something is just strange I knew

All were staring at me as odd
I was confused what's going on
Suddenly it was a shame to know
i was wearing my PJ socks!
