The Amps are an indie rock band from Dayton, Ohio, USA and were formed by Kim Deal in 1995 after The Breeders went on hiatus. They first began touring as "Tammy and the Amps" but it was later shortened to "The Amps."
Their album Pacer was released on Halloween of 1995. It is widely believed to consist mostly of songs intended for the follow-up album to the platinum Last Splash. Kim Deal originally intended to play all of the instruments herself

The Amps - Bragging Party (written by Kim Deal)
One of their best songs on their great 'Pacer' album! The whole song should be played, using power chords.
The lyrics are one big guess! :-)

>From the valley of the missing I was some old pity boy(?) Bragging party just beginning All the tales with the noise
Look hard in the chloroform Don't throw me off the town(?) You know what I need fur is shining I'm on your tail(?)
Here I'll hailes tales and drafts(?) You are what I need To hear to fill the air With memorise breaths Memorise breaths
>From the valley of the missing Down the stoned of dope(?) The kids were jogs fucking daughters(?) just a business fluke(?)
I don't know a thing about it Crazy tipper thanks a lot You ride with all in your sleep I'm up with the last one off
Here I'll hailes with tales and drafts(?) You are what I need to hear to fill the air with memorise breaths Memorise breaths
Tada Tada Tadaaaaaaaaa!
>From the valley of the missing I look so Gragging party just beginning With it man
Tada Tada Tada! (etc..)
