Song lyrics Englishman In New York by Sting

I don`t drink coffee I take tea my dear
I like my toast done on one side
As you can hear it in my accent when I talk
I'm an englishman in New York

See me walking down 5th Avenue
A walking cane here at my side
I take it everywhere I walk
I'm an englishman in New York

I'm an alien, I'm a legal alien
I'm an englishman in New York
(2x)

If manners makes a man as someone said
He's a hero of the day
It takes a man to suffer ignorance and smile
Be yourself no matter what they say

I'm an alien, I'm a legal alien
I'm an englishman in New York
(2x)

Modesty, propriety can lead to notoriety
You could end up as the only one
Gentleness, sobriety are rare in this society
At night a candles brighter than the sun

Takes more than combat gear to make 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 makes a man as someone said
He's a hero of the day
It takes a man to suffer ignorance and smile
Be yourself no matter what they say (repeats endlessly)

I'm an alien, I'm a legal alien
