*featuring Missy Elliott
|
|
[Intro: Madonna + (Missy Elliott)]
|
Do I have to change my name? (Uh)
|
Will it get me far?
|
Should I lose some weight? (Uh)
|
Am I gonna be a star?
|
|
[Verse 1: Missy Elliott]
|
Missy and Madonna boy, ain't nothin' better
|
Hotter than fat bitches dancin' in a sweater
|
Madonna am I okay skinny or fatter
|
When I rap on this track *sniff* all I smell is cheddar
|
You and I together, yo' we're tougher than leather
|
Make pop artists scatter when we talk chit-chatter
|
It really don't matter what time of day or weather
|
Or who's ass really fatter, my kadunk-kadunk badder
|
A rap so sick, won't stop, won't quit
|
All on my dick, like my name was 50 Cent, G-Unit!
|
I come with the heat, see my hits
|
Sound so sweet, Missy ain't pissy
|
Is you dizzy, is you with me
|
Tip me when you see me, 'cause you tryna get with me
|
Madonna bring the drama, oh mama that's trauma
|
Tougher than armor for your papa and your mama
|
|
[Verse 2: Madonna + (Missy Elliott)]
|
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?
|
I'd like to express my extreme point of view
|
I'd like to express my extreme point of view
|
(A Madonna exclusive)
|
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
|
Do I have to change my name? (C'mon)
|
|
[Chorus: Madonna]
|
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
|
|
[Verse 3: Madonna]
|
I tried to stay ahead, I tried to stay on top
|
I tried to play the part, but some how I forgot
|
Just what I did it for, and why I wanted more
|
This type of modern life, is it for me?
|
Fuck it
|
Ah, fuck it
|
Ah, fuck it
|
Ah, fuck it
|
Ah, fuck it, uh-huh
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
This is, a Madonna exclusive
|
This is, the American life, fuck it
|
|
[Verse 4: Madonna Rap]
|
I'm drinking a Soy latte
|
I get a double shot?
It goes right through my body
|
And you know I'm satisfied
|
I drive my Mini Cooper
|
And I'm feeling super-dooper
|
Yo they tell I'm a trooper
|
And you know I'm satisfied
|
I do yoga and palates
|
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 metaphysic's 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 Christian and I'm not a Jew
|
I'm just living out the American dream
|
And I just realised that nothing
|
Is what it seems
|
What it seems (C'mon)
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
[Outro: Missy Elliott]
|
This is the American Life, FUCK IT
