[Intro]
Do I have to change my name?
Will it get me far?
Am I gonna be a star?
[Verse 1]
I tried to be a boy
I tried to be a girl
I tried to be a mess
I tried to be the best
[Verse 2]
Do I have to change my name? Will it get me far?
Am I gonna be a star? Will it get me far?
This type of modern life, is it for me?
This type of modern life, is it for free?
[Chorus]
American life
American life
American life (American life)
I live the Amеrican dream (American life)
You arе the best thing I've seen
You are not just a dream
Not just a dream
[Verse 3]
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 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
American dream, American dream, American dream
[Chorus]
American life
I live the American dream (American life)
You are the best thing I've seen
You are not just a dream
American life (American life)
I live the American dream (American life)
You are the best thing I've seen
You are not just a dream
Not just a dream
[Outro]
American life
American life
