Surrender Lyrics By Cheap Trick

    mother told me yes she told me
    that 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 alright
    daddy’s alright
    they just seem a little weird
    surrender
    surrender
    but don’t give yourself away
    hey hey

    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
    hey hey

    whatever happened to all this season’s
    losers of the year
    every time i got to thinking
    where’d they disappear
    but when i woke up mom and dad
    are rolling on the couch
    rolling numbers rock and rollin’
    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
    hey hey
    away
    away

    surrender mommy’s all right
    surrender daddy’s all right
    but don’t give yourself away
    surrender mommy’s all right
    surrender daddy’s all right
    but don’t give yourself away
    surrender mommy’s all right
    surrender daddy’s all right
    but don’t give yourself away
    surrender mommy’s all right
    surrender daddy’s all right
    but don’t give yourself away
    surrender mommy’s all right
    surrender daddy’s all right
    but don’t give yourself away
    surrender mommy’s all right
    surrender daddy’s all right
    but don’t give yourself away
    surrender mommy’s all right
    surrender daddy’s all right
    but don’t give yourself away
