I dont take coffee I take tea my dear |
|
I like my toast done on one side |
|
And you can hear it in my accent when I talk |
|

|
See me walking down fifth avenue |
|
A walking cane here at my side |
|
I take it everywhere I walk |
|
Im an englishman in new york |
|

|

|

|
If, manners maketh man as someone said |
|
Then hes the hero of the day |
|
It takes a man to suffer ignorance and smile |
|
Be yourself no matter what they say |
|

|
Modesty, propriety can lead to notoriety |
|
You could end up as the only one |
|
Gentleness, sobriety are rare in this society |
|
At night a candles 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 |
|
If, manners maketh man as someone said |
|
Then hes the hero of the day |
|
It takes a man to suffer ignorance and smile |
|
Be yourself no matter what they say |
|
Im an alien Im a legal alien |
|
Im an englishman in new york |
|
Im an alien Im a legal alien |
|
