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 season's losers of the year?

Rolling numbers, rock and rolling, got my Kiss records out.

Surrender, surrender, but don't give yourself away, ay, ay, ay.

Away.
Away.
Repeat above chorus until end. End on C.
