    Story Behind the Song
    This song started out with just the melody riff. That is all I had for quite sometime. I played it for a great musician/friend of mine Matt Yium who expanded on the riff to lay down the chord progression for the verses, shortly after that Matt moved to Portland. He helped me focus the lyrics via email to finish the long-distance collaboration. The instruments were recorded in Dallas in July of 2000 and the lyrics were recorded in Santa Monica in the fall of 2001. The final mix was done in Dallas at the end of last year. The solo for the song is the first one that I have ever played for a Key song and it was done in one take, because I am simply that good.

    Lyrics
    let's play
    let's play
    let's play
    Let's Make A Deal
    for the perfect match
    it's like digging through evil for the best fish to catch
    under what is real is a surface I can't scratch
    it's like threading the needle when were trying to attach

    what i want to what i need
    and maybe you should know
    i'm not happy here
    i could go
    i could stay
    until you say sew
    it'll be that way

    Let's Make A Deal
    for the perfect match
    it's like digging through evil for the best fish to catch
    under what is real is a surface I can't scratch
    it's like threading the needle when were trying to attach

    what i want to what i need
    maybe you should know
    i'm not happy here
    i could go
    i could stay
    until you say sew
    it'll be that way
    it'll be that way

    cuz you
    don't tell me lies
    don't tell me anything
    don't tell me lies
    don't tell me anything
    don't tell me lies
    don't tell me anything
    don't tell me lies
    don't tell me anything

    don't tell me anything at all
    just don't tell me anything
    don't tell me anything at all
    just don't tell me anything

    don't tell me anything at all
