Get out of the city it's falling apart,
it's got a stake right through its heart
They're queuing for food in huddled drones,
but it's safe in the larders of those on thrones

So get out of the city, out of the city,
get out of the city today
Get out of the city,
out of the city today now

Get out of the city as the sirens squeal,
high-rise living has lost its appeal
The bailiffs giggle and snip with glee,
as they cut off gas and electricity

Get out of the city, find a new home,
undernourished kids are getting chilled to the bone
The country air is fresh and clean,
but I'm drowning in a sea of tranquillity
