B7/D#    Em   C             Em/B
When you walk home from the party

Am       Em          B7(addC)
Drunk on bacardi and listening

       B7/D#       Em  C      Em/B
To the voices that lie to you nightly

Am       Em            |B5         C5 G5 (repeat)|
Make you frightened of everyone


When you walk home from the party
Drunk on bacardi and listening
To the voices that lie to you nightly
                   B7(addC)
Make you sorry for something

You go home and spend your life alone with the stereo
Watching the late show; or force yourself
Out in the night to meet your generation
					B   B/A#  D#  G#m  D#  G#m  C#m
You feel like claymation in fluorescent light


B      B/A#      D#              G#m
On our knees, we made it hard to see

   D#              G#m                     C#m
We made it hard to breathe and the air was thin


Coda: ...C#m E5 B5.

	Clay·ma·tion A service mark used for an animation process in which clay figurines are manipulated and filmed to produce an image of lifelike movement.

No Picture Tom Average	#2 by Tom Gregory at Jan 9, 1974 at 2:47 AM EST
	this band is almost great. sadly, almost. catchy, but too sentimental lyrically.

No Picture nathan Average	#3 by nathan skidmore at Jul 27, 1978 at 4:28 AM EST
	This song isn't anti-drinking. It's about how sometimes people feel compelled to drink because it helps them socialise and talk to people that when sober they would have no interest in spending time with. This song is about isolation and feeling alone.

No Picture Dale :D Average	#4 by Dale :D O' Mondo Of DOOM!!! at Apr 13, 1982 at 12:35 PM EST

No Picture scotty 2 hotty Rhythm Player	#6 by scotty 2 hotty at May 21, 2005 at 5:56 AM EST
	This is a great song, is it anti-drinking? I like the part 'we made it hard to see, we made it hard to breathe and the air was thin.' the best.

No Picture Badass	#7 by guess wha' i suck at Sep 1, 2006 at 5:20 PM EST
	"You feel like claymation in flourescent light." This line left me pretty speechless the first time I listened to this song. I've never heard the sentiment expressed so well. Brilliant brilliant lyrics.
