|
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 |
|
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, ay, ay, ay. |
|
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, ay, ay, ay. |
|
Whatever happened to all this season's losers of the year? |
|
Ev'ry 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, ay, ay, ay. |
|
Away. Away. [Repeat Chorus 7X] |
