Anything Goes Page #3

Let's be careful about our leading lady, huh?

We mustn't get anyone

who clashes with my personality.

This show is going to be great fun.

- Good night, Victor.

- Good night.

Good night!

You all set with Junior?

- Perfect.

- Great.

Thank you.

Really, at this hour. Disgusting!

Really!

Evening, stranger.

Good evening.

I'm sorry.

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 three letter words

Writing prose

Anything goes

The world has 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

So if romance is what you're cravin'

Don't sit on your hands behavin'

Like Eskimos

Anything goes

When wrestlers go to drama classes

To learn how to please the masses

On TV shows

Anything goes

And when the craze for dancing's spreadin'

Until even Grandpa's treadin'

On Grandma's toes

Anything goes

Consider the books we got

The new looks we got

The fool fads we got

The mad ads we got

The crazy games we've got

The ladies' names we've got

For each hurricane that blows

Hey, all you Jills and you Joes

Get yourself up on your toes

It's apropos

So anything goes

This kid great or is she great?

She's great. Who is she, anyhow?

I don't know. Patsy somebody or other.

"Patsy Blair."

Come in, Sybil.

I have a confession: I'm not Sybil.

My name is Bill Benson.

Yes, I know.

Imagine meeting you here.

In a spot like this, some people like to say,

"It's a small world."

Won't you sit...

- Take this.

- No, no thanks, I've been sitting out front.

I want to tell you something:

You were just wonderful.

Coming from you, that's...

It is a small world, isn't it?

Yeah, and I'd like to make it smaller,

too, because...

I'd like to talk you into

doing a show with me.

I think I'll sit down.

How come you've never been on Broadway?

I've been living abroad for quite a while.

That's good for their side,

but it's bad for ours.

You're going to do your show in New York?

Sure.

I'm afraid I couldn't, then.

Maybe I didn't make myself quite clear

or something. This is the lead in the show.

It's a wonderful part.

I can't go home.

I mean...

Oh, hi, darling.

Full house tonight, honey. Great audience.

Thanks, honey. Mr. Benson,

this is my father.

Evening, stranger.

- How are you?

- Fine.

Out in the audience there tonight,

he couldn't even remember your name.

What do you mean?

Funny coincidence, but your father

had the seat right next to me.

Yeah. Yes, I did.

Honey, you were never better.

When you made that turn,
