And we've 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
The world has gone mad today
When most guys today that women prize today
So though I'm not a great romancer
I know that you're bound to answer
When I propose, anything goes More from Rosemary Clooney
