Текст песни Anything Goes - Eileen Rodgers feat. Anything Goes Ensemble (1962)

Times have changed,
And we've often rewound the clock,
Since the Puritans got a shock,
When they landed on Plymouth Rock.
Much 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,
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 silly gigolos
So 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 eighty
In night clubs is getting matey with gigolo's,
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 bare limbs you like,
If Mae West you like
Or me undressed you like,
to molest to
Nobody will oppose!
When every night,
The set that's smart
Is indulging in nudist parties in studios,
Anything Goes.

Just think of those shocks you've got
And those knocks you've got
And those blues you've got
From those news you've got
And those pains you've got
If any brains you've got
From those little radios.
They think he's gangster number one, and they've made him the favorite song, and
that goes to show. Anything Goes!
Anything, Anything, Anything Goes!
