Missy Elliott
American Life (Missy Elliott American Dream Remix)
[Intro: Madonna]
Do I have to change my name?
Will it get me far?
Should I lose some weight?
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, 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 ass really fatter? My ka-dunk-ka-dunk 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 (Ooh)
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 pappy 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 & Tweet]
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
(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: Madonna & Tweet]
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
(Just a dream)
[Interlude: Missy Elliott]
This is a Madonna exclusive
This is the American life, fuck it

[Verse 4: Madonna]
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 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 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 of 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 livin' out the American dream
And I just realized that nothin' is what it seems
(Is what it seems, is what it seems, is what it seems)

[Chorus: Madonna, Tweet]
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
(Just a dream)
(American life)
[Outro: Missy Elliott]
This is the American Life, fuck it
