Canadian in San Diego

I don't like coffee I take tea my dear"
I like my toast done on the side
And you can hear it in my accent when I talk
I'm a Canadian in San Diego

See me walking down First Avenue
A walking cane here at my side
I take it everywhere I walk
I'm a Canadian in San Diego

I'm an alien, I'm a legal alien
I'm a Canadian in San Diego
I'm an alien, I'm a legal alien
I'm a Canadian in San Diego

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

I'm an alien, I'm a legal alien
I'm a Canadian in San Diego
I'm an alien, I'm a legal alien
I'm a Canadian in San Diego

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 licsence for a gun
Confront your enemies, avoid them when you can
"A gentleman will walk but never run
...
by Sting F. Ali P.
