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


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Is it still me that makes you sweat?
Am I who you think about in bed?
When the lights are dim and your hands are shaking as you're sliding off your dress?
Well, then think of what you did
And how I hope to God he was worth it
When the lights are dim and your heart is racing as your fingers touch your skin

I've got more wit
A better kiss
A hotter touch a better fuck
Than any boy you'll ever meet
Sweetie you had me
Girl, I was it, look past the sweat
A better love deserving of
Exchanging body heat in the passenger seat
No, no, no, you know it will always just be me

Let's get these teen hearts beating
Faster, faster

So testosterone boys and harlequin girls
Will you dance to this beat
And hold a lover close?
So testosterone boys and harlequin girls
Will you dance to this beat
And hold a lover close?

So I guess we're back to us
Oh, cameraman, swing the focus
In case I lost my train of thought
Where was it that we last left off? (let's pick up, pick up)

Oh, now I do recall
We just were getting to the part
Where the shock sets in
And the stomach acid finds a new way to make you get sick
I sure hope you didn't expect to get all of the attention
Let's not get selfish
Did you really think I'd let you kill this chorus?

Let's get these teen hearts beating
Faster, faster

So testosterone boys and harlequin girls
Will you dance to this beat
And hold a lover close?
So testosterone boys and harlequin girls
Will you dance to this beat
And hold a lover close?

Dance to this beat
Dance to this beat
Dance to this beat

Let's get these teen hearts beating
Faster, faster
Let's get these teen hearts beating
Faster

I've got more wit
A better kiss
A hotter touch a better fuck
Than any boy you'll ever meet
Sweetie, you had me
Girl, I was it, look past the sweat
A better love deserving of
Exchanging body heat in the passenger seat
No, no, no, you know it will always just be me

Let's get those teen hearts beating
Faster, faster

So testosterone boys and harlequin girls
Will you dance to this beat
And hold a lover close?

So testosterone boys and harlequin girls
Will you dance to this beat
And hold a lover close?

So testosterone boys and harlequin girls
Dance to this beat
So testosterone boys and harlequin girls
Dance to this beat

Let's get these teen hearts beating
Faster, faster




Let's get these teen hearts beating
Faster

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Panic! At The Disco's song "Lying Is The Most Fun A Girl Can Have Without Taking Her Clothes Off" are about a past sexual relationship. The singer is sarcastically questioning if he is still on the other person's mind when they are intimate with someone else. The singer is suggesting that the other person doesn't have anyone better sexually than him. He believes that he is better than any other person the other person may come across. He's saying that the intimacy shared by the two of them was special and will always be special, and that the other person will never experience anything like it with anyone else.


The song's repetitive chorus of "So testosterone boys and harlequin girls, will you dance to this beat and hold a lover close" is a message to everyone, asking whether they will join in and hold their lover close while dancing. The song's bridge indicates that the singer is aware that his partner has moved on but refuses to back down, and he challenges to go back to the way they were before. The end of the song circles around to the chorus, emphasizing its central motif.

Miss the days when song titles were as long as essays.

@tuckerjohnson1935

Panic, Coheed, and The Devil Wears Prada to name a few. Good ole' mid 2000's music.

@angiesfettuccine0929

That sounds like a song title in itself! I love it!

@karlbenedictperez8655
