Death of a Bachelor
Wiki:
“Death Of A Bachelor” was heavily inspired by Frank Sinatra, who would have celebrated his 100th birthday this year. Panic! singer/songwriter Brendon Urie told Pete Wentz the song is autobiographical and refers to Urie’s own marriage to Sarah Orzechowski, which began in 2013. Stylistically, he described the song as a combination of Sinatra and Beyoncé. `I attach [Sinatra’s] music to so many memories: Opening presents on Christmas day, my grandparents teaching the rest of the family to swing dance, watching Who Framed Roger Rabbit with my siblings (Sinatra makes a cameo in the form of a cartoon sword singing ’Witchcraft’). His music has been a major player in the soundtrack of my life. So it’s only right that I return the favor and/or pay it forward.`

[Click here to read Panic! At The Disco’s story about “Death of A Bachelor”] [Verse 1] Do I look lonely? I see the shadows on my face People have told me I don't look the same Maybe I lost weight, I'm playing hooky with the best of the best Pull my heart out my chest, so that you can see it too [Pre-Chorus] I'm walking the long road, watching the sky fall The lace in your dress tangles my neck, how do I live? [Chorus] The death of a bachelor, o-o-oh! Letting the water fall The death of a bachelor, o-o-oh! Seems so fitting for Happily ever after, whooo, how could I ask for more? A lifetime of laughter, at the expense of the death of a bachelor [Verse 2] I'm cutting my mind off, feels like my heart is going to burst Alone at a table for two, and I just wanna be served And when you think of me, am I the best you've ever had? Share one more drink with me, smile even though you're sad [Pre-Chorus] I'm walking the long road, watching the sky fall The lace in your dress tangles my neck, how do I live? [Chorus] The death of a bachelor, o-o-oh! Letting the water fall The death of a bachelor, o-o-oh! Seems so fitting for Happily ever after, whooo, how could I ask for more? A lifetime of laughter at the expense of the death of a bachelor [Instrumental Bridge] [Chorus] The death of a bachelor, o-o-oh! Letting the water fall The death of a bachelor, o-o-oh! Seems so fitting for Happily ever after, whooo, how could I ask for more? A lifetime of laughter at the expense of the death of a bachelor
