Sutton Foster, Company - Anything Goes Lyrics

Lyrics Anything Goes - Sutton Foster, Company



Times have changed
And we've often rewound the clock
When the puritans got a shock
When they landed on Plymouth Rock
If today
Any shock they should try to stem
Instead 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 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 prise 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 grandmama whose age is 80
In nightclubs is getting matey with gigolos
Anything goes
When mothers pack and leave poor father
Because they decide they'd rather be tennis pros
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 studios
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 prise today
Are just silly gigolos
They think each gangster number one
So they made him their favourite son
And that goes to show
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 you're bound to answer, when I propose
Anything Goes
Anything, anything, anything
Anything Goes
