Letra da Música Anything Goes Medley de Olivia Newton-John

In olden days a glimpse of stocking
Was looked on as something shocking
Now Heaven knows anything goes
Anything goes

Spoken:
Every generation believes that that generation is the wildest ever.
Here we are in the 70s and we're convinced that we're the raciest,
the most daring, the most provocative, the most everything, right?
Well, that's what they thought in the 1900s. She's daring...

Sung: Anything goes...

Spoken: She's racy...

Sung: Anything goes...

Spoken: And so provocative...

Sung: Anything goes.

"Every Little Movement"
(Harbach/Hoschna 1910)

Every little movement has a meaning all its own
Every thought and feeling by some posture can be shown
And every love thought that comes a-stealing o'er your being
Must be revealing all its sweetness
In some appealing little gesture all its own

"Anything Goes" (continued)

The world's 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

"Runnin' Wild"
(Wood/Gibbs/Harrington 1950)

Runnin' wild, lost control
Runnin' wild, mighty bold
Feelin' gay, reckless, too
Carefree mind all the time, never blue

Always goin' don't know where
Always showin' I don't care
Don't love nobody
It's not worthwhile
All alone runnin' wild

"Forty-Second Street"
(Dubin/Warren 1932)

Come and meet those dancing feet
On the Avenue I'm taking you to
Forty-Second Street

Side by side, they're glorified
Where the underworld can meet the elite
Naughty, bawdy, gaudy, sporty
Forty-Second Street

"Shoo Shoo Baby"

Shoo, shoo, shoo, baby
Shoo, shoo, shoo, baby
Bye, bye, bye, baby
Mama's off to the Seven Seas

Don't cry, baby
Don't sigh, baby
Bye, bye, bye, baby
When I come back
We'll live a life of ease

"Anything Goes" (continued)

Good authors too who once knew better words
Now only use four-letter words writing prose...

"Life Can Be a Dream"

Sha-boom, sha-boom
Yadda dah-dah...
Sha-boom, sha-boom
Yadda dah-dah...
Sha-boom, sha-boom
Life can be a dream, Sweetheart

"Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds"

Picture yourself on a boat on a river
With tangerine trees and marmalade skies
Somebody calls you, you answer quite slowly
The girl with kaleidoscope eyes

Cellophane flowers in yellow and green
Towering over your head
Look for the girl with the sun in her eyes
And she's gone

Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Lucy in the sky with diamonds

"Anything Goes" (continued)

Now Heaven knows,
Anything...

"Love is Alive"

Well, I think it's time to get ready
To realize just what I have found
I have been only half of what I am
It's all clear to me now

My heart is on fire
My soul's like a wheel that's turning
My love is alive
My love is alive

There's a mirror moving inside my mind
Reflecting the love that you shine on me
Hold on to that feeling
Let it flow, let it grow

My heart is on fire
My soul's like a wheel that's turning
My love is alive
My love is alive

My love is alive
My love is alive

Spoken: But no matter what the generation....

"As Time Goes By"

You must remember this
A kiss is just a kiss
A sigh is still a sigh
The fundamental things apply
As time goes by

And when two lovers woo
They still say, "I love you."
On that you can rely
No matter what the future brings
As time goes by

Moonlight and love songs
Never out of date
Hearts full of passion
Jealousy and hate
Woman needs man
And man must have his mate
That no one can deny

It's still the same old story
A fight for love and glory
A case of do or die
The world will always welcome lovers
As time goes by
