[Bb] [Gm] [D]
[Eb] [Bb] [F]
[Bbm] [Ebm] Time have changed, [Bbm] and we've often rewound the [B] clock,
since the [Dbm] Puritans [B] got the [F] shock when they landed on Plymouth [Bb] Rock.
If today any [Ebm] shock they [Ebm] should try to [F] stamp,
instead [Bbm] of landing on Plymouth [F] Rock, [C] Plymouth Rock would [F] land on [Gm] there [Bb] in olden days.
A glimpse of stocking wasn't a [Gm] storm or something shocking,
[Bb] but now [Cm] God knows [Ebm] [Bb] anything [Eb] goes.
[Bb]
[Bb] Good authors too who once knew better words now [Gm] only use four-letter [Fm] words,
[Eb] writing prose, [Ebm] [Bb] anything goes.
[A]
[D] If driving fast [Em] cars you like, if [A] low [Dm] bars you like, if old [A] hymns you like,
if fair limbs [Dm] you like, if Mae West you like, or me undressed [G] you like, why nobody [F] will [Dm] upho!
[Bb] When every night the set the smartest, including [Gm] at nudist parties [Eb] in studios, [Bb] anything goes.
[F]
[Bb] When Mrs.
Ned McLean, God bless her, can get [Gm] Russian Red [Bb] to yes her, [Eb] then I suppose [Bb] anything [Eb] goes.
[Bb]
[Bb] When Rockefeller still can hoard enough [Gm] money to let Max Gordon [Bb] produce [Eb] his show, [Bb] anything [C] goes.
[A]
[D] The world has gone mad [A] today, and good bad [Dm] today, and [D] blacks white [A] today, and days night [Dm] today,
and that gent [Dm] today, you gave a cent [F] today, what [E] had several [Cm] [F] chateaus.
[Bb] When folks who still can ride in jitneys find out [Gm] Vanderbilt and [Bb] Quintin is [Eb] lack baby clothes, [Bb] anything goes.
[Eb] [F]
[Bb] When Sam Goldwyn [Gm] can, with great [Bb] conviction, instruct an [Gm] ascent in [Fm] diction, let [Cm] Anna show, [C] [Bb] anything goes.
[Bb] [F]
[Bb] When you hear that [Gm] lady [Bb] Mendel standing up, [Gm] now does a hand spring [Fm] landing up [Cm] on her toes, [Ebm] [Bb] anything [Eb] goes.
[A] Just think [D] of those shots you got, [A] and those knocks you got, [Dm] and those blues you got, [A] from those news you got,
[Dm] and those pains you got, in any brains you got, [Bb] from those little [F] radios.
[Bb] So Mrs.
R, with all her trim and cat broadcast, [Gm] the best of Simmons, [Bb] cause [Cm] Franklin knows, [Bb] anything [F] [Bb] goes.
