Sting - Englishman In New York Lyrics
I dont take coffee I take tea my dearI like my toast done on one sideAnd you can hear it in my accent when I talkIm an englishman in new yorkSee me walking down fifth avenueA walking cane here at my sideI take it everywhere I walkIm an englishman in new yorkIm an alien Im a legal alienIm an englishman in new yorkIm an alien Im a legal alienIm an englishman in new yorkIf, manners maketh man as someone saidThen hes the hero of the dayIt takes a man to suffer ignorance and smileBe yourself no matter what they sayIm an alien Im a legal alienIm an englishman in new yorkIm an alien Im a legal alienIm an englishman in new yorkModesty, propriety can lead to notorietyYou could end up as the only oneGentleness, sobriety are rare in this societyAt night a candles brighter than the sunTakes more than combat gear to make a manTakes more than a license for a gunConfront your enemies, avoid them when you canA gentleman will walk but never runIf, manners maketh man as someone saidThen hes the hero of the dayIt takes a man to suffer ignorance and smileBe yourself no matter what they sayIm an alien Im a legal alienIm an englishman in new yorkIm an alien Im a legal alienIm an englishman in new york
