Текст песни Surrender, Cheap Trick

Words and Music by Rick Nielsen

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.

Repeat Chorus 7X
