Watch the music video, and it'll tell you. After all, if it's been approved by Panic! at the Disco themselves, then it has to be legitimate, right?

I believe that this song is part of the song trilogy with Lying is the most fun a girl can have without taking her clothes off and but its better if you do. In Lying is the most fun a girl can have without taking her clothes off the guy is obviously talking about a girl who cheated on him and he refuses to take her back In but its better if you do he goes to the strip club where he really would rather not be but he meets a stripper who he falls in love with and decides to marry in I write sins not tragedies ("And yes, but what a shame, what a shame, the poor groom's bride is a whore.") He is angry that people would say stuff like that at his wedding and asks them to keep their opinions to themselves (I'd chime in, "Haven't you people ever heard of closing a goddamn door?!")

If you have actually read the interview with brendon WHO ACTUALLY SINGS!!! some person seemed to think that brent wilson is the singer when actually he is the BASS PLAYER.

Anyway Brendon is saying how his character is the groom's conscience. The groom is trying to deny how slutty his future wife is. He overhears what the waitor and the bridesmaid sais but he tries to ignor it. The conscience (Brendon) is trying to get him to realise that she is a slut and "it's much better to face these kind of things with a sense of poise and rationality" instead of denying it all.

so basically brendon is the grooms consience and just tried to get the groom to admit that his wife is a slut who will just end up hurting him.

AND FOR THE RECORD BRENT IS THE BASS PLAYER

BRENDON IS THE SINGER!!!!!!!!

Tthe fucktard who says this song sucks doesn't have any business puttin a comment like that on here.

And by the way I think this song is about a guy who's wife cheats on him right after they got married and thinks getting married was a mistake in the first place after he catches her.

I would love to know what the bride's name is. I have been looking all over the internet trying to find it but everyone is focused on how hot the groom is!

The character being vocalized is the groom and everything sung is centered on him.

In the beginning, he is walking around the church before the wedding with the common pre-wedding jitters.
"As I'm pacing the pews in a church corridor"

He then hears a passing conversation between a bridesmaid and a waiter in another room with the door cracked. The two of them discussing the general wedding and then the truth comes out about who the bride really is as the bridesmaid, one usually very close to the bride, spills it.
"'What a beautiful wedding!', 'What a beautiful wedding!' says a bridesmaid to a waiter.
'And yes, but what a shame, what a shame, the poor groom's bride is a whore.'"

The groom bursts into the room, having just over-heard this and simply thinking it would have been easier to have just not over-heard it.
"I chime in with a 'Haven't you people ever heard of closing the god damn door?!'"

But then the groom begins to get a grip on the situation and begins thinking things out and trying to calm himself.
"No, it's much better to face these kinds of things with a sense of poise and rationality."

So he thinks along on this, and begins to become a bit bitter, cynical, and sarcastic. The main twist being the sudden epiphany illustrated by the blatantly placed "...oh" He realizes that "the marriage" is saved because now that he knows this, they won't become married, she can't cheat on him, and thus there will never be a divorce. Thus it is "saved."
"No, it's much better to face these kinds of things with a sense of...oh.
Well in fact, well I'll look at it this way, I mean technically our marriage is saved
Well this calls for, a toast so, pour the champagne."

The lines:
"I chime in 'Haven't you people ever heard of closing the god damn door?!'
No, it's much better to face these kinds of things with a sense of poise and rationality."
Are repeated over and over again because that's what the entire message is based around. If that part hadn't occurred, the marriage would have proceeded, the bride would have probably cheated, and they would have been divorced. Thus the line illustrates the falseness and immorality of an insincere matrimony.

The narrator of the song is the groom's conscience as in the video. The groom overhears the bridesmaid and waiter saying the bride is a whore and soon finds out that she's cheating on him. I don't think "Haven't you people ever heard of closing the goddamn door?!" line is directed at the bridesmaid and waiter like so many of you believe. The entire song is focused around this line so why would they repeatedly say this to the waiter and bridesmaid who are only mentioned in the beginning the song? The song should be focused on the cheating bride, so I think the line is directed at her. I think it means something along the lines of "get a room" so when the bride and her paramour are caught in an act of infidelity the groom feels like chiming in with everyone else, "haven't you people ever heard of closing the goddamn door?!" because they were pretty much making out in the open. And the second of verse "..technically our marriage is saved.." is sarcasm on the groom's part after discovering his fiancee's infidelity.

Actually, happy_chick99, that is an interpretation of the MUSIC VIDEO, not the SONG. The song does not mention anything at all about entertainers or family circuses. The song outlines the basic idea in the video-there is a wedding, and the bride is caught in an act of infidelity.

I take it from a very differnt place I block out the fact that it is a wedding and look at what he is saying, he at first said "Oh, well imagine" so first he's thinking it and setting up a scenerio, and the whole song is about why you should keep your mouth shut on certain topics and don't gossip thus "Haven't you people ever heard of closing the god damn door?!" and then saying well any way whats said is said so lets move on; "Well in fact, well I'll look at it this way, I mean technically our marriage is saved" also with the part about "No, it's much better to face these kinds of things with a sense of poise and rationality." that we should come to a solution that is rational, and the agian part is again renforcing the part that you need to shut up other wise we will just have to keep redoing the things we have already done. because for all we know the fact that "And yes, but what a shame, what a shame, the poor groom's bride is a whore." is true.

I think it's about the groom, the singer mocking the people who said the bride was a whore. "no it's much better to face these kinds of things..." It doesn't matter if those people said that or not, because they are still being sort of two faced by showing up at the wedding and then gossiping behind the couple's back. The groom sees this and is just like "between you two who would keep this a secret and between my fiance". Then he reflects a moment, and thinks "technically our marrige is saved", from the family who said it wouldn't last. Because they will never be married, they will never have a divorce, technically.

The song is about a girl who's getting married but has a dirry little secret...

"Oh, well imagine as I'm pacing the pews in a church corridor and I can't help to hear in exchanging of words. What a beautiful wedding. What a beautiful wedding says a bridesmaid to a waiter but guess what, what a shame the poor groom's bride is a whore."

I think this part means that the bride's secret is out as teh bride's lover is wandering around before he watches her get married.

" I'd chime in with a Haven't you people ever heard of closing the God damn door! No. It's much better to face these kinds of things witha sense of piose and rationallity."

This part means that he's pissed about his secret affair with the bride being out. He's saying can't you people keep these things to yuorself. The bride, on the other hand, is saying no it's better if the truth come out now then hurt us even more if we wait.

" Well in fact, well I'll look at it this way, I mean technically our marriage is saved. Well this calls for a toast so pour the champagne."

this means it's a good thing they got the truth out but the bride realizes that it's her lover she's in love with.
(hence the fact that in the video the lead singer is not only the bride's consciene but the bride's lover at the end).

Ok, I think the guy pacing is the groom, this much we get, but then I think it gets tricky with metaphors. I think it "haven't you heard of closing the goddam door" is in he groom's mind. I think he is jumping into the marriage thing and he knows his wife isn't pure to him. Inside he is asking himself, " we should handle this with poise and rationality", meaning going thru with the wedding. "closing the goddam door" is what he's asking his, soon-to-be wife, "why can't she just close the ties on her past life of, being a whore". I think the wife hasn't cut ties with her past fully and he is waging a battle of nerves, because he is about to marry her.
He hears that people thinks that's its beautiful but they have no idea what goes on. The energy of the song would lead you to believe there is a personal battle going on, and the comments are internal. His wifes a whore, he knows it, he's hoping she changes it and can rationalize with her that they are going to be married now. These other people have no idea whats going on in his head.

I think that the singer is posed as the groom's conscious. As the groom is waiting for the bride he over hears a whispering conversation between one of the bride's maids and a waiter. The waiter says that the groom's bride is a whore and the groom just brushes it off his shoulder. After a lot of confusion the bride runs away and the groom catches (I am using the music video to interpret) a glimpses of a young man run after her. He at first doesn't want to come to any conclusions but his conscious pulls him to go and see if the young man running after his bride has any relevance. He finds that his soon to be wife was a whore and she is not going to marry him, but stay with her lover. And technically there marriage was saved because they didn't get married.

This song is about an innocent guy who is in love and going to get married to a whore ("What a shame the poor grooms bride is a whore") whos everybody knows is a skank who cheated on him but he's to blind to see it. As for the circus people, they represtent that was him a long time ago and he changed his whole life for her but now she won't do the same. She thinks she wants to have the perfect boyfriend/husband but alll she really wants is to have to the bad boy boyfriend and at the end he finally sees that(when she is pashing I think an ex-boyfriend) and he relised that everything that he gave up is just wanted and he changeds back. P.S Some of this is in reference to the Video clip (which is so cool)

I think the song is about the singer being the brides affair man.

So he hears the exchange of words, about the bride being a whore. Then becomes angry and yells at the waiter and bridesmaid for not closing the door before they talk about the the bride and himself.

It can then be understood why he says technically their marriage is saved, because now everyone knows the truth, he can call for a toast because he calmed down to look at things with a sense of pose and rationality. It's just the type of thing Panic! At the Disco would do.
