Madonna - American Life (Headcleanr Rock Mix)

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?

Do I have to change my name?
Will it get me far?
Should I lose some weight?
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, fuck it
(repeat 3 times)

(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? [American life]
Am I gonna be a star? [I`m the American dream]
Do I have to change my name? [American life]
Am I gonna be a star? [I`m the American dream]
Do I have to change my name?

[American life]
[I`m the American dream]
