Panic! At The Disco Collectors Box Lyrics
11.I Constantly Thank God For Esteban

Give us this day our daily dose of faux affliction,
Forgive our sins
Forged at the pulpit with forked tongues
selling faux sermons
Because I am a new wave gospel sharp,
and you'll be thy witness
So gentlemen, if you are going to preach,
For God sakes preach with conviction!

Strike up the band!
WoOw ho! the conductor is beckoning
Come congregation,
let's sing it like you mean it
No. Don't you get it don't you get it?
Now don't you Move.

Strike up the band!
WhOw ho! the conductor is beckoning
Come congregation,
let's sing it like you mean it
No. Don't you get it don't you get it?
Now don't you move.

Just stay where I can see you.
Douse the lights!
We sure are in for a show tonight.

In this little number we are graced
by two displays of character,
We've got: the gunslinger extraordinaire,
a walking contradiction;
And I for one can see no blood
From the hearts and the wrists you allegedly slit
And I for one wont stand for this
If the scene were a parish you'd all be condemned.

Strike up the band!
WoOw ho! the conductor is beckoning
Come congregation,
let's sing it like you mean it
No. Don't you get it don't you get it?
Now don't you...move.

Strike up the band!
WoOw ho the conductor is beckoning
Come congregation,
let's sing it like you mean it
No. Don't you get it don't you get it?
Now don't you, don't you...move.

Just stay where I can see you.
Douse the lights!
...We sure are in for a show tonight

Just stay where I can see you.
Douse the lights!
...We sure are in for a show tonight

Just stay where I can see you.
Douse the lights!
La da ta ta ....

Strike up the band!
WoOw ho! the conductor is beckoning
Come congregation,
let's sing it like you mean it.
No. Don't you get it don't you get it?
Now don't you move...

Strike up the band!
WoOw ho! the conductor is beckoning
Come congregation,
let's sing it like you mean it.
No. Don't you get it don't you get it?
Now don't you move...

Don't you move..

Don't you move!
Strike up the Band!


12.There's A Good Reason These Tables are Numbered Honey,You Just
Haven't Thought Of It Yet

Panic At the Disco
There's A Good Reason These Tables Are Numbered Honey.
You Just Haven't Thought Of It Yet

Please leave all overcoats, canes and...
top hats with the doorman.
From that moment,
you'll be out of place and under dressed.
I'm wrecking this evening already
and loving every minute of it.
Ruining this banquet for the mildly inspiring and.....

Please leave all overcoats,
canes and top hats with the doorman.
From that moment,
you'll be out of place and under dressed.
I'm wrecking this evening already
and loving every minute of it.
Ruining this banquet for the mildly inspiring and.....

When you're in black slacks with accentuating,
off-white, pinstripes, whoa-oh
Everything goes according to plan.

I'm the new cancer,
Never looked better, you can't stand it.
Because you say so under your breath.
You're reading lips, 'When did he get all confident?'
Haven't you heard that I'm the new cancer,
Never looked better and you can't stand it.

Next is a trip to the,
the ladies room in vain and
I bet you just can't keep up with
(keep up!)these fashionistas and.
Tonight, tonight, you are,
you are a whispering campaign.
I bet to them, your name is 'Cheap',
I bet to them you look like shh...
Talk to the mirror, oh, choke back tears.
And keep telling yourself that,'I'm a diva'
Oh and the smokes in that cigarette box
On the table, they just so happen to be laced with
nitroglycerin.

I'm the new cancer,
Never looked better, you can't stand it.
Because you say so under your breath.
You're reading lips,
'When did he get all confident?'
Haven't you heard that I'm the new cancer,
Never looked better and you can't stand it.

Album:A Fever You Can't Sweat Out

Haven't you heard that I'm the new cancer?
I've never looked better and you can't stand it.
Haven't you heard that I'm the new cancer?
I've never looked better and you can't stand it.

And I know, and I know,
It just doesn't feel like a night out
with no one sizing you up.
I've never been so surreptitious,
so of course you'll be distracted
when I spike the punch.

And I know, and I know,
It just doesn't feel like a night out
with no one sizing you up.
I've never been so surreptitious,
so of course you'll be distracted
when I spike the punch.

And I know, and I know,
It just doesn't feel like a night out
with no one sizing you up.
I've never been so surreptitious,
so of course you'll be distracted
when I spike the PUNCH!


13.Build God,Then We'll Talk

It's these substandard motels on the (lalalalala)
corner of 4th and Fremont Street.
Appealing only because they are just that
un-appealing
Any practiced catholic would cross themselves
upon entering.
The rooms have a hint of asbestos
and maybe just a dash of formaldehyde,
And the habit of decomposing right
before your very (lalalala) eyes.

Along with the people inside
What a wonderful caricature of intimacy
Inside, what a wonderful caricature of intimacy

Tonight tenants range from:
a lawyer and a virgin
Accessorizing with a rosary tucked
inside her lingerie
She's getting a job at the firm come Monday.
The Mrs. will stay with the cheating attorney
moonlighting aside,
she really needs his money.
Oh, wonderful caricature of intimacy.

Yeah (Yeah)

And not to mention,
the constable, and his proposition,
for that 'virgin'
Yes, the one the lawyer met with
on 'strictly business'
as he said to the Mrs. Well,
only hours before,
after he had left, she was fixing her face
in a compact.
There was a terrible crash
(There was a terrible crash)
Between her and the badge
She spilled her purse and her bag,
and held a 'purse' of a different kind.

Along with the people inside
What a wonderful caricature of intimacy
Inside, what a wonderful caricature of intimacy

There are no raindrops on roses
and girls in white dresses.
It's sleeping with roaches
and taking best guesses
At the shade of the sheets
and before all the stains
And a few more of your least favorite things.

Raindrops on roses
and girls in white dresses
It's sleeping with roaches
and taking best guesses
At the shade of the sheets
and before all the stains
And a few more of your least favorite things.

Inside, what a wonderful caricature of intimacy

Raindrops on roses

It's sleeping with roaches

At the shade of the sheets

And a few more of your least favorite things.

Raindrops on roses

And the sleeping with the roaches
