I am an englishman in new york

A classic reference! "An Englishman in New York" is a song by Sting, released in 1988. The song is a tribute to Quentin Crisp, a British author and actor who lived in New York City for many years.

The song's lyrics capture the essence of a fish-out-of-water experience, as an Englishman navigates the vibrant and often overwhelming city of New York. The song's chorus repeats the phrase "I'm an Englishman in New York" with a sense of irony and humor, highlighting the cultural differences and challenges that come with being an outsider in a new environment.

The song has become an iconic anthem of sorts, celebrating the diversity and cosmopolitanism of New York City, while also acknowledging the difficulties of adapting to a new culture.
