American Life
Do I have to change my name?
Will it get me far?
Should I lose some weight?
Am I gonna be a star?
I tried to be a boy, I tried to be a girl
I tried to be a mess, I tried to be the best
I guess I did it wrong, that's why I wrote this song
This type of modern life, is it for me?
This type of modern life, is it for free?
So, I went into a bar looking for sympathy
A little company, I tried to find a friend
It's more easily said it's always been the same
This type of modern life, is not for me
This type of modern life, is not for free
American life (American life)
I live the American dream (American dream)
You are the best thing I've seen
You are not just a dream (American life)
I tried to stay ahead, I tried to stay on top
I tried to play the part, but somehow I forgot
Just what I did it for and why I wanted more
This type of modern life, is it for me
This type of modern life, is it for free
Do I have to change my name?
Will it get me far?
Should I lose some weight?
Am I gonna be a star?
American life (American life)
I live the American dream
You are the best thing I've seen
You are not just a dream (American life)
(American life) I tried to be a boy, I tried to be a girl
I tried to be a mess, I tried to be the best
I tried to find a friend, I tried to stay ahead
I tried to stay on top
Fuck it
Do I have to change my name?
Will it get me far?
Should I lose some weight?
Am I gonna be a star?
Oh, fuck it
Oh, fuck it
Oh, fuck it
Oh, fuck it
I'm drinking a soy latte
I get a double shot
It goes right through my body
And you know I'm satisfied
I drive my Mini Cooper
And I'm feeling super-duper
Yo, they tell I'm a trooper
And you know I'm satisfied
I do yoga and Pilates
And the room is full of hotties
So I'm checking out the bodies
And you know I'm satisfied
I'm digging on the isotopes
This metaphysic's shit is dope
And if all this can give me hope
You know I'm satisfied
I got a lawyer and a manager
An agent and a chef
Three nannies, an assistant
And a driver and a jet
A trainer and a butler
And a bodyguard or five
A gardener and a stylist
Do you think I'm satisfied?
I'd like to express my extreme point of view
I'm not Christian and I'm not a Jew
I'm just living out the American dream
And I just realized that nothing is what it seems
Do I have to change my name?
Am I gonna be a star?
Do I have to change my name?
Am I gonna be a star?
Do I have to change my name?
Will it get me far?
Should I lose some weight?
Am I gonna be a star?
I tried to be a boy, I tried to be a girl
I tried to be a mess, I tried to be the best
I guess I did it wrong, that's why I wrote this song
This type of modern life, is it for me?
This type of modern life, is it for free?
So, I went into a bar looking for sympathy

This type of modern life, is not for me
This type of modern life, is not for free

Am I gonna be a star?
Do I have to change my name?
