Shortly after "Otis" was released, Enigma Records went bankrupt, which left much of Nixon's early catalog in legal limbo. In the 1990s Nixon released a handful of albums on several labels with a backup band known as the Toadliquors. These later albums included songs such as "You Can't Kill Me," "Orenthal James (Was A Mighty Bad Man)," and the controversial "Bring Me the Head of David Geffen," which was ultimately released on a B-side collection due to pressure from album distributors. Also among his later work was "Tie My Pecker To My Leg," which featured lyrics about bestiality, incest, and coprophilia. In the mid-1990s Nixon collaborated on albums with Jello Biafra ("Prairie Home Invasion"), Dave Alvin, and members of the Beat Farmers, including Buddy "Blue" Seigal ("Live in Las Vegas" by the Pleasure Barons). Country Dick Montana of the Beat Farmers, who was a close friend of Nixon's, was eulogized on Nixon's 1999 album, "The Real Sock Ray Blue", after his 1995 death onstage of a heart attack. Before his death the two enjoyed poking fun at each other such as Country Dick saying on stage that he'd been "fucking Mojo's Mama" which led to Nixon to retort: "Country Dick can keep on fucking my mama, as long as he keeps on sucking my dick". Nixon retired from the music business in 2004, playing his last live show on March 20 of that year at the Continental Club in Austin, Texas. Nixon made his acting debut as drummer James Van Eaton in the 1989 Jerry Lee Lewis biopic, "Great Balls of Fire!" The film starred Dennis Quaid and Winona Ryder, the latter of whom appeared in Nixon's video for "Debbie Gibson Is Pregnant with My Two-Headed Love Child." The B-side to the "Debbie Gibson" song, which was also the subject of a video, was "(619) 239-KING", a follow-up to "Elvis is Everywhere" in which Nixon, responding to then-active rumors that Presley was still alive, invited the singer to call and leave a message on what was, at the time of release, a legitimate telephone number. The 1990s also saw Nixon appear in a further five films including "Super Mario Bros." (1993) and "Car 54, Where Are You?" (1994). In 1997, Nixon voiced the character of Sheriff Lester T. Hobbes, a recurring enemy in the computer game "Redneck Rampage".
