Lyrics Anything Goes - Clifford Brown, Helen Merrill

Anything Goes

In olden days a glimpse of stocking
Was looked on as something shocking
Now, heaven 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 goods bad today
And blacks white today
And days night today
When most guys today
That women prize today are just silly gigolos
And I no I’m not a great romancer
But to say I’m gonna answer
When I propose
Honey anything goes
The world has gone mad today
And goods bad today
And blacks white today
And days night today
When most guys today
That women prize today are just silly gigolos
Though I’m not a great romancer,
I know I’m gonna answer,
When you propose,
Anything goes
Anything goes
Anything goes
