[00:00.00]Anything Goes - Cole Porter
[00:12.83]Times have changed
[00:16.07]And we've often rewound the clock
[00:19.64]Since the Puritans got a shock
[00:22.60]When they landed on Plymouth Rock
[00:25.66]If today
[00:28.90]Any shock they should try to stem
[00:32.30]'Stead of landing on Plymouth Rock
[00:34.63]Plymouth Rock would land on them
[00:37.76]In olden days a glimpse of stocking
[00:41.30]Was looked on as something shocking
[00:43.61]But now God knows
[00:46.40]Anything goes
[00:50.49]Good authors too who once knew better words
[00:53.78]Now only use four-letter words
[00:56.25]Writing prose
[00:59.12]Anything goes
[01:02.06]If driving fast cars you like
[01:04.23]If low bars you like
[01:05.65]If old hymns you like
[01:07.22]If bare limbs you like
[01:08.88]If Mae West you like
[01:10.34]Or me undressed you like
[01:11.85]Why nobody will oppose
[01:15.07]When every night
[01:16.87]The set that's smart is intruding at
[01:19.27]Nudist parties in studios
[01:23.69]Anything goes
[01:27.49]When missus Ned Mclean God bless her
[01:30.79]Can get Russian reds to yes her
[01:33.04]Then I suppose
[01:36.14]Anything goes
[01:39.82]When Rockefeller still can hoard enough money to let Max Gordon
[01:45.69]Produce his shows
[01:48.28]Anything goes
[01:51.61]The world has gone mad today
[01:53.82]And good's bad today
[01:55.11]And black's white today
[01:56.70]And day's night today
[01:58.08]And that gent today
[01:59.77]You gave a cent today
[02:01.16]Once had several chateaux
[02:04.52]When folks who still can ride in jitneys
[02:08.04]Find out Vanderbilts and Whitneys
[02:10.16]Lack baby clothes
[02:13.12]Anything goes
[02:16.62]When Sam Goldwyn can with great conviction
[02:20.08]Instruct Anna Sten in diction
[02:22.53]Then Anna shows
[02:25.50]Anything goes
[02:29.25]When you hear that Lady Mendl standing up
[02:32.35]Now turns a handspring landing up
[02:35.03]On her toes
[02:37.62]Anything goes
[02:40.67]Just think of those shocks you've got
[02:42.77]And those knocks you've got
[02:44.23]And those blues you've got
[02:45.77]From that news you've got
[02:47.26]And those pains you've got
[02:48.80]If any brains you've got
[02:50.28]From those little radios
[02:53.68]So Missus R with all her trimmings
[02:57.01]Can broadcast a bed from Simmons
[02:59.24]'Cause Franklin knows
[03:02.07]Anything goes
