  • Times have changed
  • And weve often rewound the clock
  • Since the puritans got a shock
  • When they landed on plymouth rock.
  • If today, any shock they should try to stem,
  • stead of landing on plymouth rock,
  • Plymouth rock would land on them.
  • 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 goods bad today
  • And blacks white today
  • And
  • Days night today
  • When most guys today that women prize today
  • Are just silly gigolos
  • So though im
  • Not a great romancer
  • I know that youre bound to answer
  • When I propose, anything goes
  • Contributed by a visitor
  • ###########
  • Heres a more complete version:
  • Times have changed,
  • And weve ofter rewound the clock
  • Since the puritans got a shock
  • When they landed on plymouth rock
  • If today any shock they might try to stem
  • stead of landing of plymouth rock
  • Plymouth rock would land on them.
  • In olden days a glimpse of stocking
  • Was looked on as something shocking
  • But now God knows
  • Anything goes
  • Good authors to
  • Who once knew better words
  • Now only use four letter words
  • Writing prose
  • Anyhting goes
  • If driving fast cars you like
  • If low bars you like
  • If old hymns you like
  • If bare limbs you like
  • If mae west you like
  • Or me undressed you like
  • Why nobody will oppose
  • When every night
  • The set thats smart
  • Is intruding on nudist parties
  • In studios
  • Anything goes
  • When mrs. ned mcclean God bless her
  • Can get russian reds to yes her
  • Than I suppose
  • Anything goes
  • When rockafeller still can hoard
  • Enough money to let max gordon
  • Produce his shows
  • Anything goes
  • The world has gone mad today
  • And goods bad today
  • And blacks white today
  • And days night today
  • And that gent today
  • You gave a cent today
  • Once owned several chateaus
  • When folks
  • Who still can ride in jitneys
  • Find out vanderbilts and whitneys
  • Lack baby cloes
  • Anything goes
  • When sam goldwyn
  • Can with great conviction
  • Instruct anna sten in diction
  • Than anna shows
  • Anything goes
  • When you hear that
  • Lady mendl standing up
  • Now turns a handspring landing up-
  • On her toes
  • Anything goes
  • Just think of those shocks youve got
  • And those knocks youve got
  • And those blues youve got
  • >from those news youve got
  • And those pains youve got
  • (if any brains youve got)
  • >from those little radios
  • So mrs. r.
  • With all her trimmins
  • Can broacast a bed from simmons
  • Cause franklin knows
  • Anything goes
