Anything Goes

Another example of vocal mastery from Ella Fitzgerald, recorded in 1956.  Anything Goes was composed by Cole Porter in 1934, so even then there was a shocking decline in standards!

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
