Tik Tok

Tik Tok by Kesha is featured in Blame It on the Alcohol, the fourteenth episode of Season Two. It is sung by Brittany with Artie, Mercedes, and the New Directions singing backup vocals.

The New Directions are asked by Principal Figgins to perform a song at the assembly for Alcohol Awareness Week. The New Directions perform this song while hungover after a party the previous Saturday night. On top of this, they each have a swig of Rachel's improvised "mixed drink" just before they go on stage. During the song, Brittany tells Rachel that she is feeling sick. Rachel encourages her to "power through it."

Unfortunately, Brittany throws up on Rachel while on stage, which is followed by Santana also throwing up. Principal Figgins later applauds the "special effects" during this performance for the fact that no McKinley students showed up to school intoxicated the day following the assembly and gives the New Directions prizes.

Lyrics[]

Brittany:
Wake up in the morning,
Feelin' like P. Diddy (Artie: Hey, what up, girl?)
Grab my glasses,
I'm out the door,
I'm gonna hit this city (Artie: Let's go!)
Before I leave,
Brush my teeth with a bottle of Jack
'Cause when I leave for the night,
I ain't coming back

Brittany (with New Directions):
I'm talking pedicure on our (toes, toes)
Tryin' on all our (clothes, clothes)

Drop-topping, playing our favorite (CD's)
Pulling up to the (parties)
Trying to get a little bit tipsy

Unless they look like Mick Jagger

Brittany (with New Directions):

Trivia[]

In order to perform the vomiting effects, the actors wore plastic tubes which were connected to a liquid dispensing container. One was taped to the side of Heather Morris' cheek and another one on Naya Rivera's hand.
It is the first of two Kesha songs featured on Glee, the second one being Dinosaur which was also sung by Brittany.
This is the second McKinley Assembly Pep Rally at the beginning of the year that ends in a disaster or a bad performance with Brittany singing lead. The first is Toxic in the episode Britney/Brittany. Sue hits the fire drill and the student body has a large riot as they rush to the emergency exits. The third is Gimme More in the episode Britney 2.0, when Brittany lip syncs and the New Directions are booed off for the bad performance.
Kesha said that she loves the cover. Source
In Britney/Brittany, Brittany said she wanted to get a Kesha solo.
