Lyrics

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 four 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 gigolos
And though I'm not a great romancer
I know that you're bound to answer
When I propose
Anything goes
When mothers pack and leave poor father
Because they decide they'd rather be
Tennis pros
Anything goes
When grandmama whose age is eighty
In nightclubs is getting matey
With gigolos
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
And every night the set that's smart
Is indulging in nudist parties
In studios
Anything goes
So though I'm not a great romancer
I know that you're bound to answer
When I propose
Anything goes
Anything goes
Anything goes
Anything goes
