But It's Better If You Do — lyrics

Now I'm of consenting age to be forgetting you in a cabaret.
Somewhere downtown where a burlesque queen may even ask my name
As she sheds her skin on stage
I'm seated and sweating to a dance song on the club's P.A.
The strip joint veteran sits two away
Smirking between dignified sips of his dignified peach and lime daiquiri

Oh, and isn't this exactly where you'd like me
I'm exactly where you'd like me, you know
Praying for love in a lap dance and paying in naivety
Oh, and isn't this exactly where you'd like me
I'm exactly where you'd like me, you know
Praying for love in a lap dance and paying in naivety

Oh, but I'm afraid that I
Well, I may have faked it
And I wouldn't be caught dead, d-dead, d-dead, d-dead in this place

Well, I'm afraid that I
Well, that's right, well I may have faked it
And I wouldn't be caught dead in this place

And isn't this exactly where you'd like me
I'm exactly where you'd like me, you know
Praying for love in a lap dance and paying in naivety
Oh, and isn't this exactly where you'd like me
I'm exactly where you'd like me, you know
Praying for love in a lap dance and paying in naivety
oooooooooooooooooooooohhhh

Well, I'm afraid that I
Well, I may of faked it
And I wouldn't be caught dead, d-dead, d-dead, d-dead in this place

Well, I'm afraid that I
Well, that's right, well I may have faked it
And I wouldn't be caught dead in this place

And isn't this exactly where you'd like me
I'm exactly where you'd like me, you know
Praying for love in a lap dance and paying in naivety
Oh, and isn't this exactly where you'd like me
I'm exactly where you'd like me, you know
Praying for love in a lap dance and paying in naivety

Praying for love and paying in naivety
Praying for love and paying in naivety, oh

Like I said. Panic! isn't emo, panic! fanatic. They get very insulted if they're called that. And of course most of us have seen the video.
But the song is still good and I don't think I'll ever get tired of it.

Love this song! Did anyone see the video? It's awesome. I didn't know that Panic! was emo. They don't seem like it to me...

Anyway, five stars!

P!ATD, emo? I don't think it's possible for them to be emo! lol. I just had to do a "defining essay" on the the word, "emo"... Wasn't much fun. Personally, I don't think they're emo!

Much love,
Jenny... I still find the song absolutely awesome!! Love
it to bits!!

Actually brendonfreak sweet. P!ATD doesn't like to be called emo. I read that in an interview. But I don't know what they call themselves.
They're music is too bouncy to be emo anyways. :)

this song is so good and everytime i see the video, i giggle. Brendon is so talented and so hot. i would bang him in a second. HeeHee...

But not to be shallow. he is very talented and can play a wide selection of instruments. can anyone answer this
question:

How are Panic! Emo?

Still love this song and this video!!

Haha, I completely agree with Jenny Valentine. At first, when i heard it, I was like. Meh.I listened to it, a couple more times, and realized what a good, catchy song it is! =D Brendon has such a great voice, for a guy. I loved the video clip aswell, &
the kooky lyrics. xD
I also recently watched an Interview, with them & hearing about how much the word "Emo" disgusts them, i completely agreed.

Man, you're crazy... this is one of the best songs on the entire album. That's of course assuming you don't count "But It's Better" and "I Write Sins" as the same song. Duh, you can't beat "Tables are Numbered" and "Build God" as Top 2, but this one
wouldn't be under #3 in my book any day.

Also, please fix your Caps Lock button, or find a gun to put against your head. Thanks.
