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

Chorus:

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?

Am I gonna be a star?

(chorus)

American life

I tried to be a boy

Tried to be a girl

Tried to be a mess

Tried to be the best

Tried to find a friend

Tried to stay ahead

I tried to stay on top

(Spoken:)

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?

Uh, uh, uh, uh

(Spoken:)

Fuck it

(Spoken:)

I'm drinkin' a soy latte

I get a double shoté

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 me 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 their bodies

And you know I'm satisfied

I'm diggin' on the isotope

This metaphysics 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 a 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?
