Peerla is a 1998 studio album by Italian rock band Elio e le Storie Tese, consisting of previously unreleased tracks, like the various opening themes for Italian television program Mai dire Gol, and studio outtakes. It was re-released in a digital version in 2000, with the additional track "Tenia".
In Milanese dialect, pirla is a mild insult meaning 'idiot', while perla is the Italian for 'pearl', which features on the album sleeve; the double entendre focuses on the English pronunciation of ⟨ee⟩ as opposed to the Italian ⟨e⟩.
