Do I have to change my name?
Will it get me far?
Should I lose some weight?
Am I gonna be a star?
Intro: F#m
F#m
I tried to be a boy,
I tried to be a girl
I tried to be a mess,
C#
I tried to be the best
I guess I did it wrong,
Bm
That's why I wrote this song
F#m
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
C#
A little company - I tried to find a friend
Bm
It's more easily say, it's always been the same
F#m
This type of modern life is not for me?
This type of modern life is not for free?

You are not just a dream (american life)
F#m
I tried to stay ahead,
I tried to stay on top
I tried to play the part,
C#
But somehow I forgot
Just what I did it for
Bm
And why I wanted more
F#m
This type of modern life - Is it for me?

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...

F#m
I'm drinking a Soy latte
I get a double shot
It goes right through my body
And you know
I'm satisfied,
F#m
I drive my mini cooper
And I'm feeling super-dooper
Yo they tell I'm a trooper
And you know I'm satisfied
F#m
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
F#m
I'm digging on the isotopes
This metaphysic's shit is dope
And if all this can give me hope
You know I'm satisfied
F#m
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?
F#m
I'd like to express my extreme point of view
I'm not 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
F#m
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?
F#m
