 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.
 
 Same as first verse and pre-chorus
 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.
 KEY CHANGE
 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 above chorus until end. End on .
 First tab. Might not be perfect but it sounds good to me. Not too sure about the
 in the first and second choruses though. Please rate and comment. Thanks.
