lyrics:

american queen is the american dream
american queen is the american dream

she is a polish girl in america
tall, tanned, hot, blonde, called anya
i asked her "why would you wanna be a hollywood wife?"
"because i don't wanna end up living in a dive on vine"

you'd do anything for a dime
you're looking for the golden life

hollywood infected your brain
you wanted kissing in the rain, oh
living in a movie scene
puking american dreams, oh

i'm obsessed with the mess that's america
i'm obsessed with the mess that's america

a fat security making plays for me
soon as i touch down in old la
he said "oh my god! you look just like shakira!"
"no, no! you're catherine zeta!"
actually, my name's marina

your mind is just like mine
all filled up with things benign
you're looking for the golden life

hollywood infected your brain
you wanted kissing in the rain, oh
i've been living in a movie scene
puking american dreams, oh

i'm obsessed with the mess that's america
i'm obsessed with the mess that's america

american dream is the american queen
american queen is the american dream
is the american dream

hollywood infected your brain
you wanted kissing in the rain, oh
i've been living in a movie scene
puking american dreams, oh

hollywood infected your brain
you wanted kissing in the rain, oh
i've been living in a movie scene
puking american dreams, oh

i'm obsessed with the mess that's america
i'm obsessed with the mess that's america
