| 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 |
| Anything goes |
| Good authors, too, who once knew better words |
| Now only use four-letter words |
| Writing prose |
| 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 ev’ry night the set that’s smart is |
| Intruding at nudist parties |
| In studios |
| Anything goes |
| When Missus Ned McLean (God bless her) |
| Can get Russian reds to «yes» her |
| Then I suppose |
| Anything goes |
| When Rockefeller still can hoard en- |
| -ough money to let Max Gordon |
| Produce his shows |
| Anything goes |
| The world has gone mad today |
| And good’s bad today |
| And black’s white today |
| And day’s night today |
| And that gent today |
| You gave a cent today |
| Once had several chateaus |
| When folks who still can ride in jitneys |
| Find out Vanderbilts and Whitneys |
| Lack baby clothes |
| Anything goes |
| When Sam Goldwyn can with great conviction |
| Instruct Anna Sten in diction |
| Then 'Nana' shows |
| Anything goes |
| When you hear that Lady Mendl standing up |
| Now turns a handspring landing up- |
| On her toes |
| 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 |
| So Missus R., with all her trimmings |
| Can broadcast abed from Simmons |
| Cause Franklin knows |
| Anything goes |
