Englishman in New York
I don稚 take coffee I take tea my dear
I like my toast done on one side
And you can hear it in my accent when I talk
I知 an englishman in new york

See me walking down fifth avenue
A walking cane here at my side
I take it everywhere I walk
I知 an englishman in new york

I知 an alien I知 a legal alien
I知 an englishman in new york
I知 an alien I知 a legal alien
I知 an englishman in new york

If, manners maketh man as someone said
Then he痴 the hero of the day
It takes a man to suffer ignorance and smile
Be yourself no matter what they say

I知 an alien I知 a legal alien
I知 an englishman in new york
I知 an alien I知 a legal alien
I知 an englishman in new york

Modesty, propriety can lead to notoriety
You could end up as the only one
Gentleness, sobriety are rare in this society
At night a candle痴 brighter than the sun

Takes more than combat gear to make a man
Takes more than a license for a gun
Confront your enemies, avoid them when you can
A gentleman will walk but never run

If, manners maketh man as someone said
Then he痴 the hero of the day
It takes a man to suffer ignorance and smile
Be yourself no matter what they say

I知 an alien I知 a legal alien
I知 an englishman in new york
I知 an alien I知 a legal alien
I知 an englishman in new york
