Englishman In New York

Englishman In New YorkSting
I don''''t drink coffee I take tea my dear
I like my toast done on the side
And you can hear it in my accent when I talk
I''''m an Englishman in New York </P><P> 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 </P><P> 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 </P><P> 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 </P><P> 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 </P><P> 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 </P><P> Takes more than combat gear to make a man
Takes more than license for a gun
Confront your enemies, avoid them when you can
A gentleman will walk but never run </P><P> 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 </P><P> 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 </P><P>
