Emperor's New Clothes - Panic! At the Disco

We bet on our lives and we bet on the horses In that upstairs apartment On Orlando and 4th And the rent was due and the rent man was knocking Like a Chinese proverb We were always searching Nightlife's a no win but nobody noticed How we killed off the bottles Looking good on the surface The dog days barked and the house cat got old We were Bonnie and Clyde In the emperor's new clothes And the tears never came They just stayed in our eyes We refused to admit that we wore this disguise Every inch of us growing Like Pinocchio's nose As we walked around in the emperor's new clothes We flew by our wits and by the seat of our pants In the state of illusion In the nation of chance And the repo was hauling the wreck we'd been driving As the dashboard Madonna Smiled back at us kindly We cheated the system never batting an eyelid Seeing only the good Through the holes in our shoes And our halos were rusty but we wore them proudly We were two little gods In the emperor's new clothes And the tears never came They just stayed in our eyes We refused to admit that we wore this disguise Every inch of us growing Like Pinocchio's nose As we walked around in the emperor's new clothes We were Bonnie and Clyde In the emperor's new clothes And the tears never came They just stayed in our eyes We refused to admit that we wore this disguise Every inch of us growing Like Pinocchio's nose As we walked around in the emperor's new clothes Emperor's new clothes Emperor's new clothes

I didn't know that she was dancing right beside me I only noticed when she asked me so politely "Could you play my favourite song?" Latchin' on to all the words that I was singing It wasn't hard to feel the heat that she was bringing But she was stringing me along We danced the night away She told me she would stay the night at my place But in the morning I called to say You left some clothes last night And I wonder who you are And I wonder are you far You left, still on my mind And I'll never feel the same Didn't even catch your name She was drinking me underneath the table Tried to keep up when I knew I wasn't able She told me "practice what you preach" Then she kissed me when I wasn't expecting Didn't think that it would go in that direction I guess it's time for us to leave We danced the night away She told me she would stay the night at my place But in the morning I called to say You left some clothes last night And I wonder who you are And I wonder are you far You left, still on my mind And I'll never feel the same Didn't even catch your name You left some clothes last night And I wonder who you are And I wonder are you far You left, still on my mind And I'll never feel the same Didn't even catch your name

He was the congregation's vagrant With an unrequited love When your passion's exaltation Then finding refuge is not enough She was the youngest of the family And the last to be let go When they decided they would try and make it on their own Oh, memories Where'd you go? You were all I've ever known How I miss yesterday And how I let it fade away Where'd you go? When July became December Their affection fought the cold But they couldn't quite remember What inspired them to go And it was beautifully depressing Like a street car named Desire They were fighting for their love that started growing tired Oh, memories Where'd you go? You were all I've ever known How I miss yesterday And how I let it fade away Don't fade away When money lost momentum And the bills were piling high Then the smile had finally faded From the apple of their eye And they were young and independent And they thought they had it planned Should have known right from the start You can't predict the end Oh, memories Where'd you go? You were all I've ever known How I miss yesterday And how I let it fade away Oh, memories Where'd you go? You were all I've ever known How I miss yesterday And how I let it fade away Don't fade away
