lirik lagu shirley bassey - englishman in new york
[verse 1]
i don’t drink coffee, i 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]
you 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
he’s the hero of the day
it takes a man to suffer ignorancе and smile
be yourself, no mattеr 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

[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
[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
[outro]
whoa, i’m an alien, i’m a legal alien
i’m an englishman in new york
i’m an englishman in new york
i’m an englishman in new york
