Englishman In New York

In the style of

Sting

Lyrics

i don't 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
i'm 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'm an englishman
in new york
whoa oh, i'm an alien
i'm a legal alien
i'm an englishman
in new york
whoa oh, i'm an alien
i'm a legal alien
i'm an englishman
in new york
if manners maketh man
as someone said
then he's the hero of the day
it takes a man to suffer
ignorance and smile
be yourself
no matter what they say
whoa oh, i'm an alien
i'm a legal alien
i'm an englishman
in new york
whoa oh, i'm an alien
i'm a legal alien
i'm 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's brighter
than the sun, ooh
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's the hero
of the day
it takes a man to suffer
ignorance and smile
be yourself
no matter what they say
be yourself
no matter what they say
be yourself
no matter what they say
be yourself
no matter what they say
i'm a legal alien
be yourself
i'm an englishman
no matter what they say
in new york
be yourself
no matter what they say
i'm a legal alien
i'm an englishman
no matter what they say
in new york
whoa oh, i'm an alien
no matter what they say
i'm a legal alien
be yourself
i'm an englishman
no matter what they say
in new york
whoa oh, i'm an alien
be yourself
no matter what they say
i'm a legal alien
i'm an englishman
be yourself
no matter what they say
in new york
