Don't Play with Matches is the debut album of the American Alternative rock band Tabitha's Secret. The tracks were recorded in 1993-1995, although the album was released in 1997. It is thought that it was released to capitalise on the popularity of Rob Thomas's next band Matchbox 20's album Yourself Or Someone Like You. The songs "3 A.M." and "Tired" were both rerecorded by Matchbox 20.
