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
