Walk of Shame
The Like Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It's another beautiful day
And I can feel it rising up in my throat
It was just one of those days
When you wake up and you think you're still at home

Takes a flash to figure it out
But in your memory you might find some holes
Oh, like the last 6 hours
That made you realize you're sleeping on the floor
On someone else's floor

Oh, time to do the walk of shame
Hide your face, the night was calling
Time to do the walk of shame
Hide your face, the day is dawning

Here's another thing to explain
And I've got 25 missed calls on my phone
Oh won't you leave me alone
So I can brutalize my life all on my own

Hello stranger, what is your name?
And can you tell me where we are
Oh god oh no. Tell me we didn't Oh
Thank god ok well now I've gotta go
I've gotta get home

Oh! Time to do the walk of shame
Hide your face, the night was calling
Time to do the walk of shame
Hide your face, the day is dawning

Pick a path, oh any old one
It can't get worse than what I've already done
I know this used to be fun
But party's over now I'm feeling deaf and dumb
Oh what have I become!

Oh! Time to do the walk of shame
Hide your face, the night was calling




Time to do the walk of shame
Hide your face, the day is dawning

Overall Meaning

The Like's "Walk of Shame" is a song that captures the feelings of regret, guilt, and shame that come after a night of reckless behavior. The song begins with the singer waking up with a hangover and not knowing where she is. As she tries to piece together the events of the previous night, she is filled with a sense of dread and anxiety. She recounts the embarrassing situations she found herself in and the mistakes she made. As she realizes that she has to face the consequences of her actions, the chorus kicks in with the repetition of the phrase "time to do the walk of shame."


The lyrics in this song also touch on the feeling of isolation one can have after a night of partying. The singer seems to be alone, with only a stranger in the room who she doesn't know. She also mentions the 25 missed calls on her phone, which implies that she may have ignored the people who were trying to get in touch with her. This further emphasizes the idea that partying can be a lonely experience, and the feelings of guilt and shame can be amplified when one is isolated.


Overall, "Walk of Shame" is a powerful song that can speak to anyone who has ever woken up with regret and the desire to forget a night of reckless behavior.
