Lyrics and Music by Sting

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.

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:
     Woo-ooh,
     I’m an alien, I’m a legal alien,
     I’m an Englishman in New York.
     Woo-ooh,
     I’m an alien, I’m a legal alien,
     I’m an Englishman
     In New York.

If “manners maketh man,”
As someone said,
He’s the hero of the day.
It takes a man
To suffer ignorance and smile,
Be yourself, no matter what they say.

Chorus:
     Woo-ooh,
     I’m an alien, I’m a legal alien,
     I’m an Englishman in New York.
     Woo-ooh,
     I’m an alien, I’m a legal alien,
     I’m an Englishman
     In New York.

Bridge:
   Modesty, propriety,
   Can lead to notoriety
   But you could end up
   As the only one.
   Gentleness, sobriety,
   So rare in this society,
   At night a candle’s brighter
   Than the sun.

Takes more than combat
Gear to make a man,
Takes more than a licence for a gun.
Confront your enemies,
Avoid them when you can,
A gentleman will walk but never run.

If “manners maketh man,”
As someone said,
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.

Sung over the Chorus:
Be yourself, no matter what they say,
Be yourself, no matter what they say.
Be yourself, no matter what they say,
Be yourself, no matter what they say.

Be yourself, no matter what they say,
Be yourself, no matter what they say.
Be yourself, no matter what they say,
Be yourself, no matter what they say.

Be yourself, no matter what they say,
Be yourself, no matter what they say.
Be yourself, no matter what they say,
Be yourself, no matter what they say…
