    Story Behind the Song
    From Syberdelix Records Press Release:

    "It was a challenging album to record," explains Christine Mascott, "since part of the original concept was to write music for a woman to sing which was in a guitar friendly key... it keeps the music sounding full and more legitimately rock and roll but makes it harder to sing. We wanted to try to capture the vibe of the band and just give it a little twist..." Christine's vocals were recorded on Thanksgiving 2001 and New Years Eve 2001/2002... all the recording and mixing for the record was done on holidays or overnight due to the budget constraints inherent to all independent productions.›

    Lyrics
    TELL ME

    TELL ME
    IS IT ALL IN THE CARDS
    IS THE GAME ALMOST OVER
    AM I GONNA FLY FLY FLY FLY FLY
    TELL ME
    DID YOU JUST SAY MY NAME
    OH DID YOU THINK ME INSANE
    ARE YOU GONNA BUY BUY BUY BUY BUY

    OH TELL ME WHAT YOU'RE THINKIN WHEN THE WORLD GOES DOWN
    YEAH TELL ME WHAT YOU'RE DRINKIN WHEN THE WORDS SLOW DOWN
    YEAH TELL ME WHAT IT TAKES TO BE A HERO TODAY
    YEAH TELL ME ALL MY DREAMS AWAY

    TELL ME WHEN IT BREAKS AND THEN I'LL TELL YOU WHEN TO STOP
    YEAH, TELL ME WHAT'S SO GOOD ABOUT ASCENDING TO THE TOP
    YEAH, TELL ME ANY NUMBER AND I'LL TELL YOU WHAT TO DO
    YEAH, TELL ME ALL MY DREAMS ARE TRUE

    TELL ME

    TELL ME
    DID YOU THINK THAT I'D WAIT
    MAKE A JEST IN YOUR FACE
    ARE YOU GONNA TRY TRY TRY TRY TRY
    TELL ME
    WHAT'S A ROSE BUT A NAME
    IS THE PROFIT IN PAIN
    AM I GONNA DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE

    TELL ME WHAT YOU'RE THINKIN WHEN THE LIGHT TURNS ON
    YEAH, TELL ME WHAT YOU THINK ABOUT THE SIMPLE CON
    YEAH, TELL ME WHAT IT TAKES TO OPEN SORRY GREEN EYES
    YEAH, TELL ME ALL KINDS OF LIES

    AND TELL ME WHAT YOU'RE PRAYIN AND I'LL TELL YOU HOW TO STOP
    YEAH, STICKIN UP A LOVER I'M PRETENDING NOT TO COP
    YEAH SPEAKIN OF A LOVER GOTTA WONDER WHAT TO DO
    YEAH TELL ME THAT THE DREAMS ARE TRUE

    TELL ME

    TELL ME
    IS THE GAME ALMOST WON
    ARE YOU STILL HAVING FUN
    IT'S A LITTLE BIT DRY DRY DRY DRY DRY
    TELL ME
    ARE YOU BITING YOUR LIP
    WHY DON'T YOU JUST QUIT
    ARE YOU GONNA TAKE MY MY MY MY MY

    OH TELL ME WHAT THE DIFFERENCE IS TO ANY SORRY MAN
    YEAH, TELL ME IT'S A LADEL IN A DIRTY LITTLE PAN
    YEAH, OPEN UP THE CUPBOARD AND I'LL TELL YOU WHAT TO DO
    TELL ME ALL THE DREAMS ARE YOU

    LISTEN TO THE SCREAMING AND PRETEND YOU DIDN'T HEAR
    WATCHIN ALL THE BUBBLES UP ASCENDING IN THE BEER
    YEAH, OPEN UP THE HOLLOW OF A GOOD AND DECENT SOUL
    YEAH, OPEN UP BEFORE YOU'RE OLD AND

    TELL ME
