VERSE 2
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 mom isn't one of
those, I've known
her all these
years.
CHORUS
Mommy's all right,
daddy's all right,
they just seem a
little weird
Surrender,
Surrender, but don't
give yourself
away....away,
away--ay-ay-ay
VERSE 3
Whatever happened to
all this season's
loosers 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.
CHORUS
Mommy's all right,
daddy's all right,
they just seem a
little weird
Surrender,
Surrender, but don't
give yourself
away....away,
away--ay-ay-ay
