Sting - Englishman In New York (by Giulia Sirbu)

I don’t drink coffee, I’ll take tea my dear I like my toast done on one side And you can hear it in my accent when I talk I’m an Englishman in New York [Verse 2] 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 [Chorus] 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 [Verse 3] 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 [Chorus] 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 [Bridge] 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 [Saxophone solo followed by drums] [Verse 4] 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 [Verse 3] 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 Be yourself, no matter what they say Be yourself, no matter what they say [Chorus] Whoa (Be yourself, no matter what they say) I’m an alien, I’m a legal alien I’m an Englishman in New York Whoa (Be yourself, no matter what they say) I’m an alien, I’m a legal alien I’m an Englishman in New York [Outro] Whoa I’m an alien, I’m a legal alien (Be yourself, no matter what they say) Whoa I’m an Englishman in New York Whoa I’m an alien, I’m a legal alien (Be yourself, no matter what they say) I’m an Englishman in New York
