Lyrics for Alec Eiffel as interpreted by riffic

Alec Eiffel Lyrics
Pioneer of aerodynamics
(little eiffel, little eiffel)
they thought he was real smart alec
(little eiffel, little eiffel)
he thought big they called it a phallic
(little eiffel, little eiffel)
they didn't know he was panoramic
little eiffel stands in the archway
(little eiffel, little eiffel)
keeping low doesn't make no sense
sometimes people can be oh so dense
they didn't want it but he built it anyway
(little eiffel, little eiffel)
little eiffel stands in the archway
(little eiffel, little eiffel)
keeping low don't make sense
keeping low doesn't make no-sense
(little eiffel, little eiffel)
little eiffel stands in the archway
oh alexander i see you beneath
the archway of aerodynamics.

This song is incredible. The comparisons with the Pixies to Eiffel are also incredibly accurate. Though, I don't think they ever anticipated fame or the rapid cult following. One thing I'm surprised people haven't brought up is the video for this. Holy shit, it's awesome! The wind tunnel, the bright flashy clothes, and Joey's face getting wrapped around in smoke? Amazing. The whole thing looks like a 90s issue of X-Men or Generation X.

The end of the songs says “Oh Alec Eiffel I see you beneath the archway of aerodynamics”. This song is about a picture that frank black saw. it was a picture of the Eiffel tower with a child standing beneath it. The person in possession of this picture told him that it was Alec Eiffel, as a Child, standing beneath the archway. This, as everyone knows, is impossible. So, the pixies made a song out of it.
