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, 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 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, 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 licence 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 (x3)
