This is pretty really good music. This and Motion City Soundtrack made up 90% of what I listened to in eighth grade. Some of the lyrics are inappropriate, those listed above as well as, "If you talk it, better walk it, better back your s--t up." There are several inappropriate sex references, such as, "Accessorizing with a rosary tucked inside her lingerie. She's getting a job at the firm come Monday, the Mrs. will stay with the cheating attorney. Moonlighting aside, she really needs his money, a wonderful caricature of intimacy." but I understood them when I was thirteen, and didn't giggle like an immature fifth grade girl when I heard them. This is a good album for anyone who enjoys music of this genre.

What Parents Need to Know
About A Fever You Can't Sweat Out
Parents need to know that this indie rock band laces their creative lyrics with some disturbing images ("Well, she's not bleeding on the ballroom floor/Just for the attention") and sexual innuendo ("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?"). Other than the one mention of "f--k," the intense band is able to keep their songs profantity-free.

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about weirdness just for the sake of being weird, and if that is really the best way to make a point as an artist. Why is this band being critically celebrated?

The Best Album You Will Ever Listen to. For ANY AGE.
Wow, this is the best album ever! It is AMAZING! It doesn't deserve 2 stars it deserves 100,000,000,000,000,000,000 out of 5! Seriously... This is the best album ever and I think that any kid should be able to listen to it. CAUSE IT'S AWESOME! I just wouldn't go younger than 8 because there are big words and mature themes that they wouldn't understand otherwise. But don't listen to whoever reviewd this. It is AMAZING. Go buy A Fever You Can't Sweat Out because it is awesome. YAY PANIC AT THE DISCO! They're my favorite band because of this album.

If you can't handle this- go get your bottle and tuck in for a nap.
Honestly! I got this shortly after I turned eleven (I actually got Pretty. Odd. three months before) and I fell in love with this. Sure it drops the f-word one or twice, and that some songs hold traces of unsavory things- but if you ask anyone who's been in fifth grade, they hear worse than this. And for those of you who think this is WHINY- go... just go. You aren't worth the skin and bones you are made of. If you want whiny, go listen to that Hannah idiot or some other current Disney singer.

Hey, you ignorant, slanted little critic. How dare you insult this album, or Panic At The Disco for that matter. Get a real job, fool.
