Madonna 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
i live the american dream
you are the best thing i´ve seen,
you are not just a dream

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
i live the american dream
you are the best thing i´ve seen,
you are not just a dream

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?

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-dooper
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
