Englishman In New York

I don't drink coffee I take tea my dear

I like my toast done on the side

And 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
