Lyrics
Anything Goes
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
There's a man on the street with a gun in his hand
And his back against the wall
He's got kids to feed
He doesn't know if he'll be able to steal at all
Tomorrow he'll be front page news
You'll see it on TV
How a father of five was killed last night
Attempted robbery
Chorus:
Anything goes
When everything's gone
When you lose all hope
There ain't no right or wrong
You can reach out
But you can't hold on
Anything goes
When everything's gone
There's a lady I know who sells herself
At the Paradise Cafe
As a girl they called her Angel
But Angel drifted away
Somewhere in time
She crossed the line
Where feelings are all gone
For a price she'll warm a strangers bed
With a heart that's cold as stone
She cries
Anything goes
'Cause everything's gone
When you lose all hope
There ain't no right or wrong
You can reach out
But you can't hold on
Anything goes
When everything's gone
There's a world outside
That seldom sleeps
It's unknown to us all
Well they got guns
And we got guns
Who'll be the first to draw
Up on high the powers lie
The numbers are so small
With one mistake all the dams will break
And then God help us all
(chorus)
