Englishman In New York

Sting
앨범 : Nothing Like the Sun


I don't drink coffee I take tea my dear
I like my toast done on the side
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

I'm an alien, I'm a legal alien
I'm an Englishman in New York.

* If manners make the 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

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
Atnight a candle's 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

* Repeat *
