歌词
Sting - Englishman In New York
纽约的英国佬
亲爱的我不要咖啡，我喝茶
我的吐司要从一面烤
[03:35.89][03:16.63][02:57.46][02:12.01][01:52.02][01:33.07][01:14.47][00:55.27][00:36.56][00:17.00]
我一开口你就能听出来
I don't drink coffee I take tea my dear
我是个纽约的英国佬
I like my toast done on the side
你看我一路信步而来
And you can hear it in my accent when I talk
一根手杖陪着我走过第五大道
[03:40.58][01:48.21][01:38.75][01:10.55][01:00.51][00:51.63][00:32.69]I'm an Englishman in New York
我与它形影不离
See me walking down Fifth Avenue
我是个纽约的英国佬
A walking cane here at my side
我是个异类，我是个合法的异类
I take it everywhere I walk
我是个纽约的英国佬
[03:37.02][01:44.25][01:34.83][01:06.92][00:57.20]I'm an alien, I'm a legal alien
我是个异类，我是个合法的异类
[01:15.81]If "manners maketh man" as someone said
我是个纽约的英国佬
[01:20.56]Then he's the hero of the day
从前他们说“君子约之以礼”
[01:25.28]It takes a man to suffer ignorance and smile
可如今这么做就像个异类
[03:26.65][03:21.76][03:17.33][03:12.34][01:28.88]Be yourself no matter what they say
你要微笑着忍受他人的蒙昧
Modesty, propriety can lead to notoriety
我行我素，哪管它人言可畏
You could end up as the only one
我是个异类，我是个合法的异类
Gentleness, sobriety are rare in this society
我是个纽约的英国佬
At night a candle's brighter than the sun
我是个异类，我是个合法的异类
Takes more than combat gear to make a man
我是个纽约的英国佬
Takes more than license for a gun
哪怕落得恶名昭著却也要谦逊、得体
Confront your enemies, avoid them when you can
在茫茫人海中你孤身孑立
A gentleman will walk but never run
如今的社会鲜有什么风度与理性
