"Tik Tok" (styled as "TiK ToK") is the debut single by American recording artist Kesha. The song was produced by Benny Blanco and Dr. Luke and co-written by Blanco, Dr. Luke and Kesha. It was released on August 7, 2009, as the lead single from Kesha's debut studio album Animal. Lyrically, the song speaks of attending a party one night and coming home half-drunk.

The song received mixed reviews from music critics. Some praised the lyrics and celebration of party lifestyle, others have criticized the song for sounding "irritating", and being too similar to other tracks performed by the likes of Lady Gaga, and Uffie. It has achieved commercial success by topping the charts in eleven countries including the United States. It scored the biggest single-week sum of all time for a female artist selling 610,000 digital downloads in one week. As of June 2010 the single had sold 4.9 million downloads in the United States alone.
