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's 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!
Father says: "Your mother's right
She's really up on things
Before we married mommy served
In the WAC's in the Philippines"
Now, I had heard the WAC's 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 thinking
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!
Away!
Away!
Surrender, surrender
But don't give yourself away
Mommy's alright, daddy's alright
Mommy's alright, daddy's alright
Surrender, surrender
But don't give yourself away
We're all alright, we're all alright
We're all alright, we're all alright
Taken from AlbumSongAndLyrics.comSurrender, surrender
But don't give yourself awway
Hey, hey!
