The Big Push - Busking sessions

Englishman in New York

I don't take coffee, I take tea, my dear (tea, my dear)
I'd like my toast done on one side (on one side)
You can hear it in my accent when I talk
I'm an Englishman in New York

See me walking down Fifth Avenue (avenue)
Walking cane here by my side (by my side)
I take it with me everywhere that I walk
I'm an Englishman in New York

Whoa, I'm an alien
I'm a legal alien
I'm an Englishman in New York
Whoa, I'm an alien
I'm a legal alien
I'm an Englishman in New York

If "manners maketh man" as some might say (someone say)
He's the hero of the day (hero of the day)
It takes a man to suffer ignorance and smile
Be yourself no matter what they say

Takes more than combat gear to make a man (make a man)
Takes more than a license to a gun (license to a gun)
Befriend your enemies, confront them when you can
A gentleman must walk, but never run

Whoa, I'm an alien
I'm a legal alien
I'm an Englishman in New York
Whoa, I'm an alien
I'm a legal alien
I'm an Englishman in New York

Be yourself no matter what they say
Be yourself no matter what they say
Be yourself no matter what they say
Be yourself no matter what they say

Whoa, I'm an alien
I'm a legal alien
I'm an Englishman in New York
Whoa, I'm an alien
I'm a legal alien
I'm an Englishman in New York
