Panic! At The Disco: Lying Is The Most Fun A Girl Can Have Without Taking Her Clothes Off

Panic AT The Disco

Panic AT The Disco

Sexism at the disco, anyone?

An unwieldy and wholly inaccurate title this one, as it neglects to consider the thrills on offer for a girl at a traditional steam fair. Still, we can excuse P!ATD for their ignorance as this is a classic slice of revenge pop. “I’ve got more wit, a better kiss, a hotter touch, a better fuck than any boy you’ll ever meet sweetie”, sings Brendon Urie, taking aim at his cheating lover like a Viagra-crazed Morrissey. His band, meanwhile, conjure up fearsome guitars that launch Panic! light-years ahead of the emo pack.
