[00:10.94] Englishman in New York-Sting
[00:15.74] Lyrics:Sting Music:Sting
[00:19.74] I don't drink coffee I take tea my dear
[00:23.85] I like my toast done on the side
[00:28.75] And you can hear it in my accent when I talk
[00:32.74] I'm an Englishman in New York
[00:37.92] See me walking down Fifth Avenue
[00:42.98] A walking cane here at my side
[00:46.83] I take it everywhere I walk
[00:50.95] I'm an Englishman in New York
[00:55.99] Oh I'm an alien, I'm a legal alien
[01:00.93] I'm an Englishman in New York
[01:04.88] Oh I'm an alien, I'm a legal alien
[01:09.83] I'm an Englishman in New York
[01:15.76] If "manners maketh man" as someone said
[01:20.66] Then he's the hero of the day
[01:25.69] It takes a man to suffer ignorance and smile
[01:28.89] Be yourself no matter what they say
[01:33.89] Oh I'm an alien, I'm a legal alien
[01:37.88] I'm an Englishman in New York
[01:42.92] Oh I'm an alien, I'm a legal alien
[01:47.68] I'm an Englishman in New York
[01:52.88] Modesty, propriety can lead to notoriety
[01:57.89] You could end up as the only one
[02:02.39] Gentleness, sobriety are rare in this society
[02:06.79] At night a candle's brighter than the sun
[02:14.93] music (Drum)
[02:39.83] Takes more than combat gear to make a man
[02:44.75] Takes more than license for a gun
[02:49.75] Confront your enemies, avoid them when you can
[02:53.83] A gentleman will walk but never run
[02:59.68] If "manners maketh man" as someone said
[03:03.83] Then he's the hero of the day
[03:08.76] It takes a man to suffer ignorance and smile
[03:11.86] Be yourself no matter what they say
[03:16.89] Be yourself no matter what they say
[03:21.79] Be yourself no matter what they say
[03:26.53] Oh I'm an alien, I'm a legal alien
[03:30.69] I'm an Englishman in New York
[03:35.79] Oh I'm an alien, I'm a legal alien
[03:40.79] I'm an Englishman in New York
