(Reverb lead, over)
Put this down for the record,
It's more or less unchequered.
Wasted days and wasted nights,
Made me a f*ckin' beggar.
No soul, my milk is curdled,
I'm the burger-meister of purgatory.
Look out for that hot plate,
Guess that's all you got? Great?
You put the c*ck in cocktail, man,
Well I put the tail in - Wait!
Watch me. Walk!
Blowtorch a hole in that armour.
And I don't need the tip.
I'm in love with your daughter,
And though she has no need.
I'm the one who's got some trotters,
You've many mouths to feed.
REFRAIN 1:
Indie Cindy,
Be in love with me.
I beg for you to carry me.
Mixed messages from Sir Naff,
Please authenticate.
Just to be sure that you're a sap'?
N/
Set for stun automatica.
Crap is the operative,
Locomotive of the longest death.
:: INSTRUMENTAL :: (Grungy fuzzed-lead, over)

There goes Indie Cindy whose,
Sails were black when it was windy.
We offed ourselves in a lover's pact,
We threw ourselves into the sea.
Well looksie what the wind washed back,
As we follow the bouncing ball.
They call this dance the washed up crawl.
I'm in love with your daughter,
And though she has no need.
I'm the one who's got some trotters,
You've many mouths to feed.
[Downbeat spoken with Rhythm & Drums only]
I'm in love with your daughter,
[Downbeat spoken with Rhythm & Drums only]
And though she has no need.
[Return to typical Chorus]
I'm the one who's got some trotters,
You've many mouths to feed.
REFRAIN 2:

I beg for you to carry me.

NOTES:
1. "...How long were they supposed to wait? Ten years after the Pixies launched their reincarnation as
a touring band, they've cranked out a new album - exactly what fans praised them for not doing back
in 2004. It might seem like sacrilege, especially without the much-missed sass of Kim Deal, but that
depends on how mystical you want to get about a band as pop as the Pixies. ..."
