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."
Well 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, ay, aaaaaaaay.

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, aaaaaaaay.

Whatever happened to all this season's losers of the year?
Every 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 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, ay, aaaaaaaay.

Aaaaaaaay.
Aaaaaaaay.

Surrender, surrender, but don't give yourself away.
(Mommy's alright, Daddy's alright)
Surrender, surrender, but don't give yourself away.
(Mommy's alright, Daddy's alright)
Surrender, surrender, but don't give yourself away.
(Mommy's alright, Daddy's alright)
Surrender, surrender, but don't give yourself away.
(Bun E's alright, Tommy's alright, Robin's alright, Rick's alright)
Surrender, surrender, but don't give yourself away.
(Were all alright, Were all alright, Were all alright, Were all alright!!!)
Surrender, surrender, but don't give yourself away.
(Mommy's alright, Daddy's alright)

I heard it 4 days ago, and I can't get it out of my head. So I thought I would torture the rest of you. I am soooo freakin' evil that way.

The format flopped. Link me to where you got it?

Also, I have trouble reading this type of tab. Does this mean it's all finger-plucking, or are they secret chord codes?

Saw Guided By Voices cover this song in an extremely drunken state. I've loved it ever since.

Hearing a good cover can make a song even better. I heard a band cover the Kiss song Deuce, and they ruined the song for me forever. I think Kiss could have done that anyway themselves. That song blows.

The only Kiss song I ever liked was a cover of "Calling Dr. Love" by the Electric Hellfire Club.
