Been living in Britain for three years now,
Haven’t got an English friend, don’t know how,
I have an Italian, a Welsh, an Irish even a German,
But, don’t have friend who is an Englishman.
Is something wrong with them, or is it me,
I tried my best with them, I have to agree.
It is difficult to break into their closed circle,
If you manage, to keep it going needs a miracle.
Their wavelength, their frequency of thinking
Their stiff upper lip, casual sex and drinking
Is it a complex? That they have to contend,
Just gaining friendship is what I intend.
But, it’s a waste of time and effort to spend
To, find an Englishman as your friend.
