Englishman In New York
by Stinig
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
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
Oh, I'm an alien, I'm a legal alien
I'm an Englishman in New York
Oh, 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
Oh, I'm an alien, I'm a legal alien
I'm an Englishman in New York
Oh, I'm an alien, I'm a legal alien
I'm an Englishman in New York
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
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
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
(후렴구 반복)
덧. 어딘가 여행을 가지 않더라도 내가 이방인처럼 느껴진 적이 다들 있지 않으신가요?
저같은 내향인은 직장 내에서도, 가끔은 가까운 이들 속에서도 그런 묘한 감정을 느끼곤 합니다.
우린 어쩌면 어떤 면에서는 모두가 '에일리언' 이지만
스팅이 노래한 것처럼
Be yourself no matter what they say. 합시다.
오늘도 정신 승리하시는 날 되시길 바래어요!
스팅의 원곡과 함께 좋아라 하는 리무진 님의 버전으로 들고 왔어요
(리무진 님 버전은 44초 부터 음악이 시작되어요. 편곡버전이라 가사가 조금 건너 뜁니다. )
