I wouldn't have to walk so bloody far

With everything I want within my reach 
G                              C               D
I'd date the richest women and suck 'em like a leach

If only I'd been born on a beach

Walking on the ground just not for me 
G                Em                 C           D
I'd build myself a shelter, get my foilage for free

If only I'd been born up a tree

If I ever got in trouble I would only have to roar

So I wish that I'd been born in Selangore

Talk to the spiders, that come out in the rain 
G           D             G
If I'd been born down the drain ...
