Artist/Band: Less Than Jake
Lyrics for Song: Surrender
Lyrics for Album: Anthem [2003]



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's falling off.

Some Indonesian junk that's going round.



CHORUS

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.



CHORUS

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?

Every time I got to thinking, where'd they disappear?

Then I woke up, Mom and Dad are rolling on the couch.

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



CHORUS

Mommy's alright, Daddy's alright, they just seem a little weird.

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



Mommy's alright, Daddy's alright, they just seem a little weird.

Mommy's alright, Daddy's alright, they just seem a little weird.

Mommy's alright, Daddy's alright, they just seem a little weird.

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


Surrender - Less Than Jake

Less Than Jake's "Surrender" stands as a defining track from their 2003 album Anthem, capturing the band's signature blend of punk energy and melodic sensibility. Released during a period when the group was refining their sound beyond their earlier hardcore roots, the song exemplifies their ability to craft anthemic choruses that resonate with audiences seeking both aggression and emotional release. As part of their broader discography, the recording reflects the band's commitment to high-energy live performances and their evolution into a staple of alternative rock radio. The track remains a testament to their influence on the modern punk revival, showcasing a songwriting approach that balances raw intensity with catchy hooks.
