Panic! at the Disco – Casual Affair Lyrics 11 years ago
I believe that this song is obviously about love. A casual affair is pretty much having sex and no permeant commitment as in thinking of getting married. When he sings "A lover on the left, A sinner on the right" I believe he is saying that he has a choice to either go with the the lover for a committed relationship or the sinner to have a 'casual affair' which he obviously goes with the sinner. Then when he sings "Break involuntary ties, A secret so the spies, Could never find us out" he is just saying that its just a one time thing that no one needs to know about. And in the very beginning when he sings "Hey, a casual affair, That could go anywhere ,And only for tonight" I believe he is talking to the person he is having the causal affair with and is saying that if they want to it could go beyond just a casual affair they could make it serious but for tonight lets just keep it casual.

Hope that makes sense, and its just my interpretation so it's more than likely far from what it was meant to be.
