Mommy's alright, daddy's alright
They just seem a little weird
Surrender, surrender but don't give yourself away
Mommy's alright, daddy's alright
They just seem a little weird
Surrender, surrender but don't give yourself away
Away, away, away

I would walk 500 miles
And I would walk 500 more
To be the man who walked a thousand miles
To fall down at your door
