Do I have to
change my name
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 your
American Dream
You are
the best thing
I've seen
you are
I just dreamed
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 your
American dream
You are
the best thing
I've seen
you are I
just dream
American life
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
F**k 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 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
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
