out of one's tree
Lost one's marbles
Out of one's tree means crazy or behaving irrationally.
The image suggests someone has left their proper perch and gone somewhere they shouldn't be.
Often used to dismiss an opinion as absurd: You're out of your tree if you think that'll work.
Can also describe someone intoxicated to the point of losing sense: He was completely out of his tree by midnight.
