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 falling off
Some indonesian junk that's going 'round
Mommy's all right
Daddy's all right
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 known her all these years
Mommy's all right
Daddy's all right
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
Then i woke up
Mom and dad are rolling on the couch
Rolling numbers
Rock and rolling
Got my kiss records out
Mommy's all right
Daddy's all right
They just seem a little weird
Surrender
Surrender
But don't give yourself away
Surrender
Surrender
But don't give yourself away
Surrender
Surrender
But don't give yourself away
