Englishman in New York
[まじ娘「Englishman in New York」歌詞]
[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]
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]
Wo-oh, I'm an alien I’m a legal alien
I'm an Englishman in New York
Wo-oh, 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]
O-oh, I'm an alien I'm a legal alien
I’m an Englishman in New York
Wo-oh, 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
[Interlude]
[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]
Wo-oh, I'm an alien I'm a legal alien
I’m an Englishman in New York
Wo-oh, I'm an alien I'm a legal alien
I'm an Englishman in New York
[Outro]
Wo-oh, I'm an alien I'm a legal alien
I'm an Englishman in New York
O-oh, I'm an alien I'm a legal alien
I'm an Englishman in New York
