I take it everywhere I walk
I’m an Englishman in New York

Whoa oh I’m an alien

I’m an Englishman in New York 

Whoa oh I’m an alien

I’m an Englishman in New York 

Every day I wake up here’s a win
‘Cause I got here on a dream
I still hear my mother praying everyday
I’m an African in New York
You dey see am for my pride and energy
When I dey waka down the street
You can hear it in my accent when I talk
I’m an African in New York

Oooh oh I’m an alien
I’m a legal alien

Whoa oh I’m an alien
I’m a legal alien
I’m an Englishman in New York 

Oooh oh I’m an alien
