I don't think it's about Panic's break up. I think it's about a hooker.
"she was acting pretty, thought she owned the city"
*This song is about a hooker who always flirted with people and thought she owned the city. She could hook up with someone and that's how she gets money.
"someone should have told her pretty ain't a job"
*her "job" is being a hooker but what Ryan Ross is saying that someone should have told her that pretty is NOT a job so she'll know.
"now she begs for money, no one calls her honey, as she bothers shoppers in the parking lot"
*now she is a hobo/homeless person because her so-called "job" didn't last. She bothers people in parking lots asking for money.
SO the whole entire point is that there was a hooker who thought she owned the city. And thought pretty was her job. when she grew up(no one wants to hook up with her) she is homeless and begging for money. She had the chance to change her job while she was still young but she didn't, thinking her job would last. However, she is a 42 year old lady living under ladders and sleeping with black cats. She never changed
--The sound maybe Beatles like but the lyrics will always be from Panic!
I got this from Lyric interpretations but I was the one that posted it.
