This is one of the songs Koand mentions in his Comedy/Guitar Lesson/Philosophical audiobook How To Play Guitar and Y. It’s available on audible and I recommend it very highly. I’m slowly working on learning the secrets of his knowledge that he has decided to share with us. Who could possibly have more valuable information on how to approach life, love and music making?
"Anything Goes" Lyrics
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 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 gigolos
So though I'm not a great romancer
I know that you're bound to answer
When I propose, anything goes
In olden days a glimpse of stocking
Was looked on as something shocking
Now heaven knows, anything goes
And good authors too who once knew better words
Now only use four letter words writing prose
'Cause anything goes
The 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 gigolos
So though I'm not a great romancer
I know that you're bound to answer
When I propose, anything goes
May I say before this record spins to a close
I want you to know anything goes
