Build God, Then We'll Talk Lyrics
Artist(Band):Panic! At The Disco
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
Rising with a rosary tucked inside her lingerie
She's getting a job at the firm come Monday.
The Mrs. will stay wisay to the the cheating attorney
and lying aside, she really needs his money.
A 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., 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 the roaches and taking best guesses
So shed off 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 the roaches and taking best guesses
So shed off the sheets and before all the stains
And a few more of your least favorite things.
Inside, what a wonderful caricature of intimacy
Inside, what a wonderful caricature of intimacy
Raindrops on roses and girls in white dresses
It's sleeping with the roaches and taking best guesses
So shed off the sheets and before all the stains
And a few more of your least favorite things.
Raindrops on roses and the girls in white dresses
And sleeping with the 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.

Review about Build God, Then We'll Talk
awesome song. | Reviewer: amanda | 6/10/09
everyones on the right track really. except wtf is this "notebook" business "the people inside" is referring to the people in the motel not people in some "notebook" thats never once mentioned?
also i always thought he said "its sleeping with roaches and taking bad pills" thats what it sounds like to me anyways.
A (not so brief) Analysis | Reviewer: animerox111 | 6/7/09
The first verse before the chorus is (I think) in the woman's pov and she's complaining about the hotel because it's a stinky joint and the people in there are horrible and rotten ("decomposing right before your very (lalalala) eyes/ Along with the people inside")
But then in the verse after the chorus she seems to be staying there. Along with the lawyer (another term for which is attorney). The rosary in her lingerie represents the sins (sluttish probably no choice though) she just committed because she slept with him to get the job at the firm. "The Mrs. will stay wisay to the cheating attorney" mean that the girl that he's actually married to is unaware that he cheated. But she really needs his money either suggest that she's a prostitute or that she plans to marry him after he divorces his wife or something (but she doesn't want to).
As for the third verse ""on strictly business" as he said to the mrs. only hours before" means that he told his wife a lie and that he actually cheated on her. "she was fixing her face with a compact" this means she was unaware that he had switched or added stuff to her purse. The constable (police) is on to her because the lawyer ratted. He crashes into her car (purposely) and proposes that she empty her purse for a search (maybe on the grounds that she's high). She has nothing to worry about so she empties it only to find "a 'purse' of a different kind" which means its not her stuff it's stuff like condoms or something a prostitute would carry (such as a book to keep tabs).
Then "There are no raindrops on roses and girls in white dresses" means that the world isn't made up of 'favorite things' like the movies but is made up of "sleeping with roaches and taking best guesses" meaning do what you have to do (like be a prostitute)the rest(life) is a mystery. "So shed off the sheets before all the stains" here she is talking to the lawyer to wash the sheets (get rid of evidence) and is cut off. Presumably she's murdered or the police come in. "And a few more of your least favorite things" means that since the roaches it was listing least favorite things apposed to the 'favorite things' reference (to The Sound of Music).
And finally for the actual chorus: "What a wonderful caricature of intimacy" is sarcasm its like saying their so intimate and bonded but that's only outside. Presumably, this refers to the rest of the world also.
Thank You for reading, I hope this is acurate.
PS - and I'm only 14!! hahahahahaha! XD
Where do you get that she's a hooker? | Reviewer: Trinyan | 5/29/09
The part about the lawyer and the virgin specifically says, "She's getting a job at the firm come Monday." That says to me not that she's a hooker, but that she's sleeping with him so that he'll hire her at the law firm.
Not sure about the bit with the constable. It does sound like he's propositioning the "virgin" only a few hours after the lawyer was with her, and that she fixed her make-up after the lawyer left so that she'd look good again for the constable. I guess that might imply she is a hooker, so maybe she's sleeping with the lawyer to try and get a better job so she doesn't have to be a hooker any more.
Maybe the terrible crash meant that she bumped into him and dropped her purse and everything spilled out, and he saw something she didn't want him to. The "purse" of a different kind is probably not a literal purse, since it's in quotations like that. Maybe referring to a certain part of the constable's anatomy, and she's doing a "favor" for him to keep him from arresting her for what he saw in her purse.
A thought. | Reviewer: kpotd | 5/5/09
Well, after reading everyone's views and then rereading the lyrics, here is my interpretation:
The police officer is plotting with either the wife or, my thought the husband to take out the virgin. Lawyers and cops sometimes can go hand in hand... especially in places like SF. (if 4th and fremont is referring to SF, which is fairly close to where the courthouses are). After the lawyer had sex with her, she "crashed" into the badge/ police officer meaning he pulled her over. He wanted to search her purse and being the virgin she is, she allowed him (the contents spilled out) but the lawyer planted something that she didn't know was there. Therefore, she had a purse of a different kind, or one filled with stuff that she had no idea about.
my idea | Reviewer: finnesse | 4/6/09
This sounds like it was a set up to get the "virgin" out the way from the constable and or the wife of the lawyer.It does say "proposition for THAT VIRGIN". From the way that I am reading this the proposition that the constable had for the wife just hours before the virgin went to see the lawyer was that they was going to make the virgin have an accident and have the police find something that she was not supposed to have.
The Constable? | Reviewer: Anonymous | 4/2/09
Okay, so I get the majority of the song. I love the reference to the sound of music, and think it fits nicely. The line "There are no raindrops on roses and girls in white dresses" has alot of symbolism in it. "There are no raindrops on roses" refers to passionate and intimate sex between two people, and that now that kind of sex doesn't exist, and has been lost to lust. "girls in white dresses" refers to commitment, or marriage, and that you don't see people getting married for the right reasons (perhaps for money, or lust) or that no one is showing commitment to one partner, and sleeping with many. However, there is one thing about this song. Who is the constable? I don't get him and his "proposition". Can anyone elaborate?
...... | Reviewer: Renee | 3/29/09
okay...i was reading some of the reviews and where are you people getting all this stuff about the wife? it only talks about her twice, once when it says that shes going to stay with her cheating husband because she needs the money and the second time when it mentions that the lawyer lied to her...and i think the "There was a terrible crash Between her and the badge" was about the 'virgin' and the constable...not the wife....though i could be wrong....
awesome | Reviewer: jolie | 3/21/09
The song is amazing. I'm in love with Panic! At the Disco. Brendan Urie & Ryan Ross are my favorite! I love the lyrics even though they are interpeted differently but whatever. Still a great song!!!! All of their songs are orgasmic. Lol
I e Panic! At the Disco.
love the song | Reviewer: kina | 3/13/09
okay, 1st off, i really really love this song. its xtra good and amazin. but i read like some of the reviews and im not seeing where this wife of his has killed herself. nowhere does it say or even infer that she died. couldnt the "purse of a different kind" be a condom and the wife could b very confused as 2 y he has a condom and now knows what the "strictly business" was, but she decides 2 stay with him anyway (maybe). and the badge most likely means a police officer. i mean, if u get into a car accident, aren't the 1st people u call are the police??? anywayz, i love the song and the music video 4 it is hilarious lmao
4got sumthin lolz ((slipped my mind)) | Reviewer: kina (continued) | 3/13/09
also with the "taking best guesses" and the 2 lines after that, maybe its talking about the motel sheets and how filthy they r and how the lawyer and virgin are just taking their chances on having sex on something so dirty. they really don't care and just doing wat they have to do. thats my best guess. thats all my thoughts on it and if i have anymore ideas i will continue my thoughts, lolz
