don't drink coffee
I take tea my dear
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
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
I'm an alien
I'm a legal alien
I'm an Englishman
in New York
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
I'm an alien
I'm a legal alien
I'm an Englishman
in New York
I'm an alien
I'm a legal alien
I'm an Englishman
in New York
I'm an Englishman
in New York
