Englishman in New York

Englishman In New York
I dont drink 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
Im an Englishman in New York
See me walking down Fifth Avenue
A walking cane here at my side
I take it everywhere I walk
Im an Englishman in New York
Im an alien Im a legal alien
Im an Englishman in New York
Im an alien Im a legal alien
Im an Englishman in New York
If,Manners maketh manas someone said
Then hes the hero of the day
It takes a man to suffer ignorance and smile
Be yourself no matter what they say
Im an alien Im a legal alien
Im an Englishman in New York
Im an alien Im a legal alien
Im 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 candles 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 manas someone said
Then hes the hero of the day
It takes a man to suffer ignorance and smile
Be yourself no matter what they say
Im an alien I'm a legal alien
Im an Englishman in New York
Im an alien Im a legal alien
Im an Englishman in New <-4>York
