Lyrics

I don't drink coffee, I take tea my dear I like my toaster on the 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 hid at my side Take it everywhen I walk I'm an Englishman in New York Oh-oh, I'm an alien, I'm a legal alien I'm an Englishman in New York Oh-oh, I'm an alien, I'm a legal alien I'm an Englishman in New York "Manners make a man" as someone said He's the hero of the day It takes a man to suffer ignorance and smile Be yourself no matter what they say Oh-oh, I'm an alien, I'm a legal alien I'm an Englishman in New York Oh-oh, 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 license for a gun Confront your enemies, avoid them when you can A gentleman will walk but never run Oh-oh, I'm an alien, I'm a legal alien I'm an Englishman in New York Oh-oh, I'm an alien, I'm a legal alien I'm an Englishman in New York Oh-oh, I'm an alien, I'm a legal alien I'm an Englishman in New York Oh-oh, I'm an alien, I'm a legal alien I'm an Englishman in, an Englishman in I'm an Englishman in New York
