- 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 day's night today and black's white today When most guys today that women prize today Are just silly gigolos And though I'm not a great romancer I know you're bound to answer when we propose Anything goes - Go! - Go!

Instrumental

The world has gone mad today And good's bad today And day's night today And black's white today And most guys today that women prize today Are just silly gigolos And though we're not such great romancers You know that we're bound to answer When we propose Anything goes! - Anything goes! - Anything goes! Anything goes!

Cheers and applause

Cheering and applause

Look at all the little jazz babies in the first row. Heaven I'm in heaven And my heart beats so That I can hardly speak And I seem to find The happiness I seek When we're out together Dancing Cheek to cheek

Picks up tempo

- Heaven I'm in heaven - Let's go to heaven - And the cares that hung around me through the week Seem to vanish like a gambler's lucky streak When we're out together dancing cheek to cheek - Oh, I love to climb a mountain And reach the highest peak But it doesn't thrill me half as much As dancing cheek to cheek - And I love to go out fishing In a river or a creek But I don't enjoy it half as much As dancing cheek to cheek Dance with me I want my arm about you The charm about you Will carry me through To heaven! - Heaven - I'm in heaven - I'm in heaven - And my heart beats so that I can hardly speak And I seem to find the happiness I seek When we're out together dancing cheek to cheek

Instrumental

Dance with me I want my arm about you The charm about you Will carry me through - To heaven! I'm in heaven And my heart beats so that I can hardly speak - And I seem to find the happiness I seek - Oh, baby, when we're out together dancing - Out together dancing Out together dancing cheek to cheek

Playing

- There was a boy A very strange enchanted boy They say he wandered Very far... Very far Over land and sea A little shy And sad of eye But very wise Was he - Then one day A magic day He passed my way And while we spoke Of many things Fools and kings This he said to me The greatest thing You'll ever learn Is just to love And be loved in return

Guitar solo

- And then one day A magic day, he passed my way - While we spoke of many things Fools and kings This he said to me - This he said to me - The greatest thing - You'll ever learn -- Is just to love And be loved In return - Ooh-ooh-ooh

Cheers and applause

- How do you keep the music playing? How do you make it last? How do you keep the song from fading Too fast? How do you lose yourself to someone And never lose your way? How do you not run out of new things To say? And if we know We're always changing Why should it be the same? And tell me how Year after year You're sure your heart will fall apart Each time you hear her name I know The way I feel for you It's now or never The more I love the more that I'm afraid That in her eyes I may not see forever Forever If we can be The best of lovers Yet be the best of friends If we can try with every day To make it better as it grows With any luck, then I suppose The music... The music The music... Ne-e-e-e-e... Ne-e-e-e-ver Never... Never Ends

Beautiful!

- I was five and he was six We rode on horses made of sticks He wore black and I wore white He would always win the fight Bang-bang, he shot me down Bang-bang, I hit the ground Bang-bang, that awful sound Bang-bang My baby shot me down Seasons came and changed the time When I grew up I called him mine He would always laugh and say Remember when we used to play Bang-bang I shot ya down Bang-bang I hit the ground Bang-bang That awful sound I used to shoot you down Music played And people sang Not for me, no church bells rang

Instrumental

Now he's gone, I don't know why And to this day sometimes I cry He didn't even say goodbye He didn't take the time to lie Bang-bang, I shot ya down! Bang-bang, he hit the ground Bang-bang That awful sound

I won't dance, don't ask me - I won't dance -Come on! - Don't ask me I won't dance Madame, with you My heart won't let my feet do things that they should do You know what? You're lovely - And so what? I'm lovely But, oh, what you do to me I'm like an ocean wave That's bumped on the shore I feel so absolutely stumped On the floor - When you dance You're charming and you're gentle - 'Specially when we do the Continental - But this feeling isn't purely mental -No. For, heaven rest us We're not asbestos - And that's why I won't dance Why should I? - I won't dance How could I? - I won't dance Merci beaucoup We know that music leads the way To romance So if I hold you in arms I won't dance -I won't do it, Tony, I won't dance!

Pianist playing

I used to visit all the very gay places Those come-what-may places Where one relaxes on the axis of The wheel of life To get the feel of life From jazz and cocktails The girls I knew had sad and sullen gray faces With distingue traces That used to be there You could see where they'd been washed away By too many through the day Twelve o'clock tales Then you came along With your siren song To tempt me to madness I thought for awhile That your poignant smile Was tinged with the sadness Of a great love For me Oh, yes I was wrong Again I was wrong Life is lonely again And only last year Everything seemed so sure Now life Is awful again A trough full of hearts Could only be a bore A week in Paris Would ease the bite of it All I care is to smile In spite of it I'll forget you, I will While yet you are still Burning inside my brain Romance is mush Stifling those who strive I'll live a lush life In some small dive And there I'll be While I rot With the rest Of those Whose lives are Lonely Too

Cheers and applause

You know, when I sang this song for Tony, I told 'em, I said, I'm so sorry, I have... I have so many problems, Tony, I'm so sorry I'm such a mess. He said, "It's okay, you're just a sophisticated lady."

Applause

-And that's my lead into the next song, written by Duke Ellington.

Applause

- They say Into your early life Romance came And in this heart of yours Burned a flame A flame that flickered one day And died away Then With disillusion deep in your eyes You found that fools in love Soon grow wise The years have changed you somehow I see you now Smoking, drinking Never thinking of tomorrow Nonchalant Diamonds shining Dancing, dining With some man In a restaurant Is that all you really want? No Sophisticated lady I know You miss the love You lost long ago And when nobody is nigh And when nobody is nigh And when nobody is nigh You cry

Applause

Cheering and applause

- There may be trouble ahead But while there's moonlight and music and love and romance Let's face the music and dance - Before the fiddlers have fled Before they ask us to pay the bill And while we still have the chance Let's face the music and dance Soon, we'll be without the moon Humming a different tune And then - There may be teardrops to shed So while there's moonlight and music and love and romance Let's face the music and dance -Go! -Come on! - Soon, we'll be without the moon Humming a different tune And then... And then There may be teardrops to shed So while there's moonlight and music and love and romance Let's face the music and dance, dance Let's face the music Let's face the music Let's face the music and dance

Cheers and applause

Guitarist playing

- Love is funny, or it's sad Or it's quiet, or it's mad It's a good thing, or it's bad But beautiful Beautiful To take a chance And if you fall, you fall And I'm thinking I wouldn't mind at all - Love is tearful Or it's gay It's a problem, Or it's play It's a heartache Either way But beautiful Beautiful And I'm thinking If you were mine I'd never let you go And that would be But beautiful I know -Take it, maestro. -Gray Sargent, isn't he wonderful?
