In olden days a glimpse of stocking
Was looked on as something shocking
Now heaven knows, anything goesGood authors too who once knew better words
Now only use four letter words writing prose, anything goesThe 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 just silly gigolosSo though I'm not a great romancer
I know that you're bound to answer
When I propose, anything goesIn olden days a glimpse of stocking
Was looked on as something shocking
Now heaven knows, anything goesAnd good authors too who once knew better words
Now only use four letter words writing prose
Cause anything goesThe 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 just silly gigolosSo though I'm not a great romancer
I know that you're bound to answer
When I propose, anything goesMay I say before this record spins to a close
I want you to know anything goes
