Build God, Then We'll Talk Lyrics

It's these substandard motels
On the corner of 4th and Freemont Street
Appealing, only because they're just that unappealing
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 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
A wonderful caricature of intimacy

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
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
Inside, what a wonderful caricature of intimacy

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 the girls in white dresses
And the sleeping with the roaches and the taking best guesses
At the shade of the sheets and before all the stains
And a few more of your least favorite things

Build God, Then We'll Talk

This song follows a girl who sleeps around to get what she wants in life. It is also about deceit: A lawyer tells his good friend the constable about this "Virgin," who sleeps with the constable to get a job at the firm. He is cheating on his wife with said virgin, and even takes his wife's purse and replaces it with one of another color, presumably to pay for the sex.

The lyrics, "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 before all the stains, and a few more of your least favorite things" refer to the song "My Favorite Things" as sung by Julie Andrews' character (a nun) in The Sound of Music.

"Build god and then we'll talk" is a quote from Chuck Palahniuk's book Choke. Panic has drawn inspiration for many of their song titles from his books.
