Surrender
Mother told me, yes, she told me
I'd meet girls like you
She also told me, "Stay away
You'll never know what you'll catch"
Just the other day I heard of soldiers falling off
Some Indonesian junk that's going 'round
Mommy's alright, Daddy's alright
They just seem a little weird
Surrender, surrender
But don't give yourself away
Hey, hey, hey, hey
Father says your mother's right
She's really up on things
Before we married, Mommy served
In the WACs in the Philippines
Now I had heard the WACs recruited old maids for the war
But Mommy isn't one of those, I've known her all these years
Mommy's alright, Daddy's alright
They just seem a little weird
Surrender, surrender
But don't give yourself away
Hey, hey, hey, hey
Whatever happened to all this season's losers of the year?
Every time I got to thinkin' where'd they disappear
Then I woke up, Mom and Dad are rolling on the couch
Rolling numbers, rock and rolling, got my Kiss records out
Mommy's alright, Daddy's alright
They just seem a little weird
Surrender, surrender
But don't give yourself away
Hey, hey, hey, hey
Away, away, hey, hey
Mommy's alright, Daddy's alright (surrender, surrender)
They just seem a little weird (but don't give yourself away)
Surrender, surrender (Mommy's alright, Daddy's alright)
But don't give yourself away
Mommy's alright, Daddy's alright (surrender, surrender)
They just seem a little weird (but don't give yourself away)
Surrender, surrender (Mommy's alright, Daddy's alright)
But don't give yourself away (Mommy's alright, Daddy's alright)
Mommy's alright, Daddy's alright (surrender, surrender)
They just seem a little weird (Mommy's alright, Daddy's alright)
Surrender, surrender (Mommy's alright, Daddy's alright)
But don't give yourself away
Hey, hey, hey, hey
I'd meet girls like you
She also told me, "Stay away
You'll never know what you'll catch"
Just the other day I heard of soldiers falling off
Some Indonesian junk that's going 'round
Mommy's alright, Daddy's alright
They just seem a little weird
Surrender, surrender
But don't give yourself away
Hey, hey, hey, hey

Surrender, surrender (Mommy's alright, Daddy's alright)
But don't give yourself away
Hey, hey, hey, hey
