 Rate American Life Lyrics
Artist : Madonna
Song : 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
ThatĈs 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
ItĈs more easily said
ItĈs 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 IĈve 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 (American dream)
You are the best thing IĈve seen
You are not just a dream (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
Do I have to change my name
Will it get me far
Should I lose some weight
Am I gonna be a star
Oh
Oh
Oh
Oh
IĈm drinkinĈ a soy latte, I get a double shotÚ
It goes right through my body and you know IĈm
satisfied
I drive my mini Cooper and IĈm feeling
super-duper
YoĈ, they tell IĈm a trooper and you know IĈm
satisfied
I do yoga and Pilates and the room is full of
hotties
So IĈm checkinĈ out the bodies and you know IĈm
satisfied
IĈm digginĈ on the isotopes, this metaphysics
s*** is
dope
And if all this can give me hope you know IĈm
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 IĈm
satisfied
IĈd like to express my extreme point of view
IĈm not a Christian and IĈm not a Jew
IĈm just livinĈ out the American dream
And I just realized that nothinĈ is what it seems
Do I have to change my name
Am I gonna be a star
Do I have to change my name
