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
And most guys today that women prize today
Are just silly gigilos.
So though I'm not a great romancer
I know that you're bound to ans - wer when
I propose anything goes.
