Panic! at the Disco - i constantly thank god for esteban

가사는 신앙과 진정성에 대한 도전을 담고 있으며, 가짜 교훈을 비판하는 동시에 성도들에게 진정성과 conviction을 가지고 preach하라고 촉구한다
또한, 무대에서 다양한 캐릭터들이 펼쳐지는 장면을 통해 그들의 위선과 모순을 폭로하고, 진실한 마음가짐을 강조한다
여전히 진정한 신앙이 결여된 세상에서 개인적인 갈등을 드러내고 있다

Give us this day our daily dose of faux affliction
Forgive our sins, forged at the pulpit
With forked tongues selling faux sermons
Because I am a new-wave gospel sharp, and you'll be thy witness
So, gentlemen, if you're gonna preach
For God sakes, preach with conviction!
Strike up the band! Whoa-oh, the conductor is beckoning
Come, congregation, let's sing it like you mean it
No, don't you get it? Don't you get it? Now, don't you move
Strike up the band! Whoa-oh, the conductor is beckoning
Come, congregation, let's sing it like you mean it
No, don't you get it? Don't you get it? Now, don't you move
Just stay where I can see you, douse the lights!
...We sure are in for a show tonight!
In this little number, we're graced by two displays of character
We've got the gunslinger extraordinaire, a walking contradiction
And I, for one, can see no blood
From the hearts and the wrists you allegedly slit
And I, for one, won't stand for this
If this scene were a parish, you'd all be condemned
