  • Welcome to the Tea Party
    Want to be my V-I-P?
    You didn't R-S-V-P
    That's OK, that's OK

    Welcome to the Tea Party
    (oh oh, oh oh)
    Want to be my V-I-P?
    When I all steamed up,
    Hear me shout
    Tip me over and pour me out

    Your appetite is flex
    I got the table set
    Don't get your dribble on my T-t-table yet

    I got the goodies baked
    Got more than you can take
    Just try and nibble on my biscuits and my rainbow cake

    Let's be traditional
    And non commissional
    Got my elbows down, pinkies up
    That's the way you sip my cup

    Welcome to the Tea Party
    (oh oh, oh oh)
    Want to be my V-I-P?
    (oh oh, oh oh)
    You didn't RSVP
    (oh oh, oh oh)
    That's OK, that's OK
    (oh oh, oh oh)

    Welcome to the Tea Party
    (oh oh, oh oh)
    Want to be my V-I-P?
    When I all steamed up, hear me shout
    Tip me over and pour me out

    Try not to move so fast
    You know the sir comes last
    I'm the lady fatha mucka try to show some class

    Don't drink the last cup
    We keep it boiling hot
    We keep the party moving till we drink the last drop

    Let's be traditional And non commissional
    Got my elbows down, pinkies up
    That's the way you sip my cup

    Welcome to the Tea Party
    (oh oh, oh oh)
    Want to be my V-I-P?
    (oh oh, oh oh)
    You didn't RSVP
    (oh oh, oh oh)
    That's OK, that's OK
    (oh oh, oh oh)

    Welcome to the Tea Party
    (oh oh, oh oh)
    Want to be my VIP?
    When I all steamed up, hear me shout
    Tip me over and pour me out

    I know this night is like no other
    You're not just another
    I know it's only getting better
    As long as we're together
    I know this night is like no other
    You're not just another

    Welcome to the Tea Party
    (oh oh, oh oh)
    Want to be my VIP?
    (oh oh, oh oh)
    You didn't RSVP
    (oh oh, oh oh)
    That's OK, that's OK
    (oh oh, oh oh)
    Welcome to the Tea Party
    (oh oh, oh oh)
    Want to be my V-I-P?
    When I all steamed up, hear me shout
    Tip me over and pour me out Lyrics licensed and provided by LyricFind
