Mother told me, yes, she told me

I'd meet girls like you.

you'll never know what you'll 
catch."

junk that's

 they just seem a little weird.
|B         |G#m         |F#     
Surrender, surrender, but don't 
                 |E
give yourself away, ay, ay, ay.

Continues after the ad
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.

Whatever happened to all this 
            |F               |C
season's losers of the year?
|C             |G

|C              |C
rolling on the couch.
|F              |G                
Rolling numbers, rock and rolling,
 |C           |C
 got my Kiss records out.
|C               |Am             
Mommy's alright, Daddy's alright,
     |G                    |F
 they just seem a little weird.
|C         |Am             |G   
Surrender, surrender, but don't

give yourself away, ay, ay, ay.

Away.
Away.
Repeat above chorus until end. End
