American Life - Oakenfold Downtempo Remix

de Madonna

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

Do I have to change my name?
Will it get me far?
Should I lose some weight?
Am I going to be a star?

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)

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 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

I'm drinking 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 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 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 of 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 livin' out the American dream
And I just realized that nothin' 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?

(American life, I live the American Dream)
(American life, I live the American Dream)
(American life, I live the American Dream)
(American life)
