A
I got the license, I got dirty knees
F                       A
I've been swinging in trees
A paid-up member, I've been eating fleas
F                      A
Running naked in the breeze

Catatonia itch, Catalonia stitch
Oh, I've been running for miles
I start to tingle from my head to my toes
Oh, tomorrow it's a taint on the nose

           F               G             A
Hetty-etty-etty hating no money till it goes

Chorus:
E           A       G            B
Get out of city, return to the trees, yeah yeah
Get out of city, return to the trees, yeah yeah
Get out of city, return to the trees, yeah yeah
Get out of city, return to the trees

She's in the sort of films that capital phrase
Raise the pictures down the whole of Benin
Catatonia itch, Catalonia stitch, oh
Pray tomorrow it's itch, in-itchy, litchy itchy
Could do yourself on your nap

Chorus

Get out of cities, return to the trees, yeah yeah
Get out of cities, return to the trees, yeah yeah
Get out of cities, return to the trees, yeah yeah
Get out of cities, return to the trees, yeah yeah
Get out of cities, return to the trees, yeah yeah
Get out of cities, return to the trees, yeah yeah
Get out of cities, return to the trees, yeah yeah
Get out of cities, and return to the trees
