American Life (Peter Rauhofer’s American Anthem Part 2) Songtext

American life

American dream
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 be the best, tried to be the best)
This modern life, is it for me?


I tried to stay ahead
Tried to stay on top
Tried to play the part
But somehow I forgot (but somehow I forgot, but somehow I forgot)
This modern life, is it for free?
(Free, free, free, free, free, free, free, free, free)
(Free, free, free, free, free, free, free, free, 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)
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
Tried to be a girl
Tried to be a mess
Tried to be the best
Tried to find a friend
Tried to stay ahead
Tried to stay on top (fuck it)

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

Should I lose some weight?
Am I gonna be a star?
(Am I gonna be a star?)
(Am I gonna be a star?)
(Am I gonna be a star?)
Am I gonna be a star?
Do I have to change my name? (Do I have to change my name?)

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

Am I gonna be a star?
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? (Am I gonna be a star?)
Am I gonna be a star? (Am I gonna be a star?)
Am I gonna be a star?
