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 a soldier falling off
|
Some Indinesian 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
|
|
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 konwn her all these years
|
|
Mommy's alright. Daddy's alright
|
They just seem a little weird
|
Surrender, surrender
|
But don't give yourself away
|
|
Whatever happened to all this season's losers of the
|
year
|
Every time I got to thinking, where'd they disappear
|
|
When 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
|
Away
|
Away
|
|

Surrender
