Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I don't drink coffee, I drink tea my dear

I like my toast done on one side

As you can hear it in my accent when I talk

I'm an Englishman in New York

[Verse 2]

See me walkin' down Fifth Avenue

A walking cane here at my side

I take it everywhere I walk

I'm an Englishman in New York

[Verse 3]

Woah, I'm an alien, I'm a legal alien

I'm an Englishman in New York

Woah, I'm an alien, I'm a legal alien

I'm an Englishman in New York

[Verse 4]

Woah

Woah

Woah

I'm an Englishman in New York

Woah

Woah

Woah

I'm an Englishman in New York

[Verse 5]

If manners maketh man, as someone said

He's our hero of the day

It takes a man to suffer ignorance and smile

Be yourself, no matter what they say

[Verse 6]

Woah, I'm an alien, I'm a legal alien

I'm an Englishman in New York

Woah, I'm an alien, I'm a legal alien

I'm an Englishman in New York

[Verse 7]

Woah

Woah

Woah

I'm an Englishman in New York

[Verse 8]

Woah, I'm an alien, I'm a legal alien

I'm an Englishman in New York

Woah, I'm an alien, I'm a legal alien

I'm an Englishman in New York
