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 ev'rywhere 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 ignorance and smile
Be yourselfe, no matter what they say
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,
but 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 makes 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,
he's the hero of the day
It takes a man to suffer ignorance and smile
Be yourselfe, no matter what they say
(Say) 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 |
Be yourself, no matter what they say |

Whoa
