Pixies - Trompe le Monde: Wikipedia Album Entry
Trompe le Monde is the Pixies' fourth and final full-length studio album, released on September 23, 1991 through the 4AD record label. (It was released simultaneously in the USA on 4AD/Elektra, although the 2004 USA CD re-issue is solely on 4AD.) After the surf-pop of Bossanova, the album saw a return to the abrasive sound of the band's early albums, even incorporating two songs, "Subbacultcha" and "Distance Equals Rate Times Time", pre-dating their debut.

Pixies - Trompe le Monde Lyrics
Pixies - Alec Eiffel Lyrics
Pioneer of aerodynamics
(Little Eiffel, Little Eiffel)
They thought he was real smart Alec
(Little Eiffel, Little Eiffel)
Pixies - Trompe Le Monde Lyrics
Why do Cupids and Angels continually haunt her dreams
Like memories of another life is painted on her shirt in capitals
Out on the free free way there's only she an the they
Represented by the lights
Pixies - The Sad Punk Lyrics
I smell smoke that comes from a gun
Named extinction
Named extinction
Pixies - The Navajo Know Lyrics
Upon construction
There is the mohawk
His way of walking
Quite high above the ground
Pixies - Subbacultcha Lyrics
This is a song about something there
There is something about this song
We did the clubs what ass
Pixies - Space Lyrics
We needed something to move and fill up the space
We needed something this always is just the case
Jefrey with one F, Jefrey took up his place
Sat on a carpet and with tablas in hand took up the chase
Pixies - Planet of Sound Lyrics
One fine day in my odd past
I picked me up a transmission
I turned the fission ignition
Went looking for the broadcaster
Pixies - Palace of The Brine Lyrics
In a place they say is dead
In the lake that's like an ocean
I count about a billion head
All the time, there's a motion
Pixies - Motorway to Roswell Lyrics
Last night he could not make it
He tried hard but could not make it
Last night he could not make it
Pixies - Lovely Day Lyrics
At the station, at the border
An egression to the exterior
Law and order
Upward plantation
Pixies - Letter to Memphis Lyrics
The day since I met her
I can't believe it's true
She came here from Memphis
Across the ocean sailing
Pixies - Head On Lyrics
As soon as I get my head around you
I come around catching sparks off you
I get an electric shock from you
A secondhand living just won't do
Pixies - Distance Equals Rate Times Time Lyrics
I had me a vision
There wasn't any television
From looking into the sun
I'm looking into the sun
Pixies - Bird Dream of The Olympus Mons Lyrics
Speed leaving without warning
I need some place to sleep tonight
Blowing in the rocking of the pine
Pixies - U - Mass Lyrics
In the sleepy west ofthe woody east
Is a valley full, full o' pioneer
We're not just kids, to say the least
We got ideas to us that's dear
