Times have changed |
| [00:16] |
And we've often rewound the clock |
| [00:19] |
Since the Puritans got a shock |
| [00:22] |
When they landed on Plymouth Rock. |
| [00:25] |
If today |
| [00:29] |
Any shock they should try to stem |
| [00:31] |
'Stead of landing on Plymouth Rock, |
| [00:34] |
Plymouth Rock would land on them. |
| [00:38] |
In olden days, a glimpse of stocking |
| [00:42] |
Was looked on as something shocking. |
| [00:44] |
But now, God knows, |
| [00:47] |
Anything goes. |
| [00:50] |
Good authors too who once knew better words |
| [00:54] |
Now only use four-letter words |
| [00:57] |
Writing prose. |
| [01:00] |
Anything goes. |
| [01:03] |
If driving fast cars you like, |
| [01:05] |
If low bars you like, |
| [01:06] |
If old hymns you like, |
| [01:08] |
If bare limbs you like, |
| [01:10] |
If Mae West you like, |
| [01:11] |
Or me undressed you like, |
| [01:13] |
Why, nobody will oppose. |
| [01:16] |
When ev'ry night the set that's smart is in- |
| [01:20] |
Truding in nudist parties in |
| [01:22] |
Studios. |
| [01:25] |
Anything goes. |
| [01:29] |
When Missus Ned McLean (God bless her) |
| [01:32] |
Can get Russian reds to \"yes\" her, |
| [01:35] |
Then I suppose |
| [01:38] |
Anything goes. |
| [01:41] |
When Rockefeller still can hoard en- |
| [01:45] |
Ough money to let Max Gordon |
| [01:47] |
Produce his shows, |
| [01:50] |
Anything goes. |
| [01:53] |
The world has gone mad today |
| [01:56] |
And good's bad today, |
| [01:57] |
And black's white today, |
| [01:59] |
And day's night today, |
| [02:01] |
And that gent today |
| [02:02] |
You gave a cent today |
| [02:03] |
Once had several chateaux. |
| [02:07] |
When folks who still can ride in jitneys |
| [02:10] |
Find out Vanderbilts and Whitneys |
| [02:12] |
Lack baby clo'es, |
| [02:15] |
Anything goes. |
| [02:19] |
If Sam Goldwyn can with great conviction |
| [02:23] |
Instruct Anna Sten in diction, |
| [02:25] |
Then Anna shows |
| [02:28] |
Anything goes. |
| [02:31] |
When you hear that Lady Mendl standing up |
| [02:35] |
Now turns a handspring landing up- |
| [02:38] |
On her toes, |
| [02:41] |
Anything goes. |
| [02:44] |
Just think of those shocks you've got |
| [02:45] |
And those knocks you've got |
| [02:47] |
And those blues you've got |
| [02:49] |
From that news you've got |
| [02:50] |
And those pains you've got |
| [02:52] |
(If any brains you've got) （ |
| [02:54] |
From those little radios. |
| [02:56] |
So Missus R., with all her trimmin's, |
| [03:00] |
Can broadcast a bed from Simmons |
| [03:03] |
'Cause Franklin knows |
| [03:06] |
Anything goes. |
