Anything Goes movie - Anything Goes lyrics
rate me<br>
[RENO]<br>
Times have changed, <br>
And we've often rewound the clock, <br>
Since the Puritans got a shock, <br>
When they landed on Plymouth Rock. <br>
If today, <br>
Any shock they should try to stem, <br>
'Stead of landing on Plymouth Rock, <br>
Plymouth Rock would land on them. <br>
<br>
In olden days a glimpse of stocking <br>
Was looked on as something shocking, <br>
But now, God knows, <br>
Anything Goes. <br>
<br>
Good authors too who once knew better words, <br>
Now only use four letter words <br>
Writing prose, Anything Goes. <br>
<br>
The world has gone mad today <br>
And good's bad today, <br>
And black's white today, <br>
And day's night today, <br>
When most guys today <br>
That women prize today <br>
Are just silly gigolos <br>
And though I'm not a great romancer <br>
I know that I'm bound to answer <br>
When you propose, <br>
Anything goes <br>
<br>
When grandmama whose age is eighty <br>
In night clubs is getting matey with gigolo's, <br>
Anything Goes. <br>
<br>
When mothers pack and leave poor father <br>
Because they decide they'd rather be tennis pros, <br>
Anything Goes. <br>
<br>
If driving fast cars you like, <br>
If low bars you like, <br>
If old hymns you like, <br>
If bare limbs you like, <br>
If Mae West you like <br>
Or me undressed you like, <br>
Why, nobody will oppose! <br>
When every night, <br>
The set that's smart <br>
Is intruding in nudist parties in studios, <br>
Anything Goes. <br>
<br>
[RENO, PASSENGERS & CREW]<br>
The world has gone mad today <br>
And good's bad today, <br>
And black's white today, <br>
And day's night today, <br>
When most guys today <br>
That women prize today <br>
Are just silly gigolos <br>
And though I'm not a great romancer <br>
I know that I'm bound to answer <br>
When you propose, <br>
Anything goes <br>
<br>
[RENO]<br>
If saying your prayers you like, <br>
If green pears you like <br>
If old chairs you like, <br>
If back stairs you like, <br>
If love affairs you like <br>
With young bears you like, <br>
Why nobody will oppose! <br>
<br>
[ALL]<br>
And though I'm not a great romancer <br>
And though I'm not a great romancer <br>
I know that I'm bound to answer <br>
When you propose, <br>
Anything goes... <br>
Anything goes!<br>
<br>
