That Green Gentlemen (Things Have Changed)

Panic! At The Disco · Pretty. Odd. [2008]

Things are shaping up to be pretty odd

Little deaths in musical beds

So it seems I'm someone I've never met



You will only hear these elegant crimes

Fall on your ears from criminal dimes

They spill unfound from a pretty mouth



Everybody gets there and everybody gets their

And everybody gets their way

I never said I missed her when everybody kissed her

Now I'm the only one to blame



Things have changed for me, and that's okay

I feel the same, I'm on my way, and I say

Things have changed for me, and that's okay



I want to go where everyone goes

I want to know what everyone knows

I want to go where everyone feels the same



I never said I'd leave the city

I never said I'd leave this town

A falling out we won't tiptoe about



Everybody gets there and everybody gets their

And everybody gets their way

I never said I missed her when everybody kissed her

Now I'm the only one to blame



Things have changed for me, and that's okay

I feel the same, I'm on my way and I say

Things have changed for me, and that's okay

I feel the same, and I say

Things have changed for me, and that's okay

I feel the same, and I say

Things have changed for me, and that's okay

I feel the same, and I say

Things have changed for me, and that's okay

I'm on my way, and I say



Things have changed for me
