Anything Goes

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 should 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
 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 I'm bound to answer
 When you propose
 When grandmama whose age is eighty
 In night clubs is getting matey with gigolo's
 When mother pack and leave poor father
 Because they decide they'd rather be tennis pros
 Anthing 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 studios
 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
 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...
 Anything Goes!
