About this song: The Ballad Of Mona Lisa
Brendon Urie came up with the original idea for this song before the band had even started touring on their 2008 album Pretty. Odd. He told MTV News: "It was just sitting in my laptop collecting figurative dust on my hard drive, not really doing much." (Source The Ballad of Mona Lisa Songfacts).
