Times have changed...and we've often rewound the clock
|
Since the Puritans got a shock, when they landed on Plymouth Rock.
|
If today, any shock they would try to stem.
|
'Stead of landing on Plymouth Rock, Plymouth Rock would land on them.
|
|
In Olden days a glimpse of stocking was looked on as something shocking,
|
But now God knows,
|
Anything Goes.
|
Good authors too, who once knew better words,
|
Now only use 4 letter words writing prose,
|
Anything Goes.
|
|
The world has gone mad today, and good's bad today
|
And black's white today and day's night today
|
When most guys today that women prize today
|
Are just silly gigilo's.
|
And though Im not a great romancer, I know that I'm
|
Bound to answer when you propose,
|
Anything Goes.
|
|
When Grand-ma-ma, who's age is 80 in nightclubs is
|
Getting matey with gigolo's,
|
Anything Goes.
|
When mother packs and leaves poor father
|
Bcause they decide they'd rather be tennis pro's,
|
Anything Goes.
|
|
If driving fast cars you like, if low bars you like
|
If old hymns you like, if bare limbs you like,
|
If Mae west you like, or me undressed you like
|
Why, nobody will oppose.
|
When every night the set that's smart is intruding
|
In nudist parties in studio's,
|
Anything Goes.
|
|
The world has gone mad today, and good's bad today,
|
And black's white today, and day's night today
|
When most guys today that women prize today
|
Are just silly gigolos
|
And though I'm not a great romancer, I know that I'm
|
Bound to answer when you propose,
|
Anything Goes.
|
|
If saying your prayers you like, if green pears you like
|
If old chairs you like, if back stairs you like,
|
If love affairs you like, with young bears you like
|
Why nobody will oppose.
|
And though I'm not a great romancer,
|
I know that I'm bound to answer when you propose,
|
Anything Goes!
|
|
Controversial verse:
|
If driving fast cars you like,
|
Or low bars you like,
|
Or bare limbs you like,
|
Or Mae West you like,
|
Or me undressed you like, to molest tonight,
|
Nobody will oppose!
|
When every night the set that's smart is
|
Indulging in nudist parties, just goes to show,
|
Anything goes!
