Build God, Then We'll Talk is the fifth and final official single written by Ryan Ross from Panic! at the Disco's 2005 album, A Fever You Can't Sweat Out, including the radio-only single "The Only Difference Between Martyrdom And Suicide Is Press Coverage". The bridge melody of "Build God, Then We'll Talk" is a derivative of the melody of the chorus of "My Favorite Things" from The Sound of Music. The lyrics in the bridge also directly satirise the lyrics in "My Favorite Things". The song's title originates from a quote in Douglas Coupland's book Shampoo Planet.
[edit] Music Video
The video depicts the story of a "pornomime" and a girl who falls in love after she watches one of his performances. Their relationship is a mimed one. Both "relationships" encompass a false feeling of intimacy and are essentially devoid of meaning. The mime and his girlfriend both walk in on each other having affairs (mimed, of course), again symbolising the emptiness of their mimed relationships. They are not making love to real people - it is an illusion.
