Anything Goes

In olden days a glimpse of stocking

Was looked on as something shocking

Now, Heaven knows

Anything goes

Good authors, too, who once knew better words

Now, only use four-letter words

Writing prose

Anything goes (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

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, anything goes

Anything goes (Anything will do)

Just think of those shocks you've got

And those knocks you've got

And those blues you've got

From that news you've got

And those pains you've got

If any brains you've got

From those little radios

So though I'm not a great romancer

I know that you're bound to answer

When I propose (When I propose)

Anything goes

Anything goes, anything goes

(When?)
