Except it wont be named "Tools" and so on, if it already is in a 
language he doesn't understand. :-( Unless there are some
"locals" available to translate.

But you can start english language LyX like this, from
the command line:

LANG=C lyx

or

export LANG=C
lyx


Then the menu will say "Tools" and you can make a permanent change.
I am not sure how this will work if on windows. Perhaps:

set LANG=C
lyx
