Strophe)
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 Endlishman in New York
See me walking down Fifth Avenue
A walki9ng cane here at my side
I take it everywhere I walk
I´m an Englishman in New York
Refrain)
I´m an alien I´m a legal alien
I´m an Englishman in New York
I´m an alien, I´m a legal alien
I´m an Englishman in New York
Strophe)
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 thwy say
Refrain)
I´m an alien I´m a legal alien
I´m an Englishman in New York
I´m an alien, I´m a legal alien
I´m an Englishman in New York
Bridge)
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
Strophe)
Takes more than combat gear to ma a man
Takes more than a license for a gun
Comfront your enemies, avoid them when you can
A gentleman will walk but never run
Strophe)
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 thwy say
Be yourself no matter what thwy say
Be yourself no matter what thwy say
Refrain)
I´m an alien I´m a legal alien
I´m an Englishman in New York
I´m an alien, I´m a legal alien
I´m an Englishman in New York
