Tatsulok

Totoy, bilisan mo, bilisan mo ang takbo
Ilagan mga bombang nakatutok sa ulo mo
Totoy, tumalon ka, dumapa kung kailangan
At baka tamaan pa ng mga balang ligaw

Totoy, makinig ka, 'wag kang magpa-gabi
Baka pagkamalan ka't humandusay d'yan sa tabi
Totoy, alam mo ba kung ano ang puno't dulo
Ng di matapos-tapos na kaguluhang ito?

Hindi pula't dilaw tunay na magkalaban
Ang kulay at tatak ay 'di s'yang dahilan
Hangga't marami ang lugmok sa kahirapan
At ang hustisya ay para lang sa mayaman

Habang may tatsulok at sila ang nasa tuktok
Hindi matatapos itong gulo

Ililigtas ang hininga ng kay raming mga tao
At ang dating munting bukid, ngayo'y sementeryo
Totoy, kumilos ka, baliktarin ang tatsulok
Tulad ng dukha, nailagay mo sa tuktok

Hindi pula't dilaw tunay na magkalaban
Ang kulay at tatak ay di syang dahilan
Hangga't marami ang lugmok sa kahirapan
At ang hustisya ay para lang sa mayaman

Habang may tatsulok at sila ang nasa tuktok
Hindi matatapos itong gulo

Hindi pula't dilaw tunay na magkalaban
Ang kulay at tatak ay 'di s'yang dahilan
Hangga't marami ang lugmok sa kahirapan
At ang hustisya ay para lang sa mayaman

Habang may tatsulok at sila ang nasa tuktok
Hindi matatapos itong gulo
Habang may tatsulok at sila ang nasa tuktok
Hindi matatapos itong gulo
Hindi matatapos itong gulo

I don't drink coffee, I take tea, my dear
I like my toast done on one side
But 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 by my side
I take it everywhere I walk
I'm an Englishman in New York

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

If "Manners maketh man" as someone said
For he's the hero of the day
It takes a man to suffer ignorance and smile
I said, "Be yourself no matter what they say"

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

Modesty, propriety can lead to notoriety
You could end up as the only one
Gentleness, sobriety are rare in this society
At night a candle's brighter than the sun

Don't you know you are a fool that never could win

Takes more than combat gear to make a man
Takes more than a license for a gun
Confront your enemies and avoid them when you can
A gentleman will walk but never run

If "Manners maketh man" as someone said
For he's the hero of the day
It takes a man to suffer ignorance and smile
I said, "Be yourself no matter what they say"
I said, "Be yourself no matter what they say"
I said, "Be yourself no matter what they say"

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

But I've seen some brighter days
And I said, oh no, oh no
I've seen some brighter days, I'ma be the man
Just trust me now
Bawi ka sa akin
