Discover the story of the song > Tea Party – Kerli

The song is about a tea party hosted by the protagonist. She invites her romantic partner to join her, but they didn't RSVP. However, she welcomes them warmly and offers them treats, reminding them to be traditional by keeping their elbows down and pinkies up while sipping from her cup. The protagonist emphasizes the importance of being together and enjoying the night, likening their experience to a "porcelain in a paper cup world". The chorus repeats the invitation to the tea party and encourages the partner to tip the protagonist over and pour her out when she's all steamed up.
