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 You 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, I'm an alien, I'm a legal alien I'm an Englishman in New York Whoa, I'm an alien, I'm a legal alien I'm an Englishman in New York If "manners maketh man" as someone said He's the hero of the day It takes a man to suffer ignorancе and smile Be yourself, no mattеr what they say Whoa, I'm an alien, I'm a legal alien I'm an Englishman in New York Whoa, 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 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 Whoa, I'm an alien, I'm a legal alien I'm an Englishman in New York Whoa, I'm an alien, I'm a legal alien I'm an Englishman in New York Whoa, I'm an alien, I'm a legal alien I'm an Englishman in New York I'm an Englishman in New York I'm an Englishman in New York
