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.
