Surrender

Lyrics

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 a soldier's fallin' off
 Some Indonesian junk that's goin' 'round
 
 Mommy's alright, daddy's alright
 They just seem a little weird
 Surrender, surrender
 But don't give yourself away
 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
 ♪
 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 rollin' on the couch
 Rollin' numbers, rock and rollin', 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
 Away, away
 
 Surrender, surrender (mommy's alright, daddy's alright)
 But don't give yourself away
 Surrender, surrender (mommy's alright, daddy's alright)
 But don't give yourself away
 Surrender, surrender (mommy's alright, daddy's alright)
 But don't give yourself away
 Surrender, surrender (Bun E.'s alright, Tom is alright)
 But don't give yourself away (Robin's alright, Rick's alright)
 Surrender, surrender (we're all alright, we're all alright)
 But don't give yourself away (we're all alright, we're all alright)
 Surrender, surrender (mommy's alright, daddy's alright)
 But don't give yourself away
 Surrender, surrender (mommy's alright, daddy's alright)
 But don't give yourself away
 Surrender
