Overall Meaning

The song "I'd Do Anything" is a catchy and cheerful tune from the popular musical "Oliver!" The song was composed by Lionel Bart, who wrote the book, music, and lyrics for the musical, which is based on Charles Dickens' novel Oliver Twist. The musical premiered at the West End's New Theatre in London in 1960 and went on to become a massive hit. "I'd Do Anything" is a song that features several characters from the musical, expressing their love and devotion for their significant others.

The song begins with Nancy and Dodger teasing each other coyly, and then Dodger launches into the first verse, expressing his commitment to his beloved. Nancy then joins in, asking him if he would do anything for her, and the song takes off from there. The song acts as a comedic interlude in the musical, giving the audience a breather from the drama of the story while also providing some humor and entertainment value.

The song is notable for its catchy melody and upbeat tempo, which makes it a popular choice for musical performances and karaoke. It is also a significant part of popular culture, having been covered and referenced in several other media over the years. The song has been covered by many famous artists, including Chubby Checker, Sammy Davis Jr., and Johnny Mathis, among others. Interestingly, the song was also used in a 2008 episode of the popular TV series "Glee" and was parodied in the animated TV series "The Simpsons."

"I'd Do Anything"

Another day is going by
I'm thinking about you all the time
But you're out there and I'm here waiting
And I wrote this letter in my head
'Cause so many things were left unsaid
But now you're gone and I can't think straight

This could be the one last chance to make you understand, yeah

I'd do anything
Just to hold you in my arms
To try to make you laugh
'Cause somehow I can't put you in the past
I'd do anything
Just to fall asleep with you
Will you remember me?
'Cause I know I won't forget you

Together we broke all the rules
Dreaming of dropping out of school
And leave this place but never come back
So now, maybe after all these years
If you miss me, have no fear
I'll be here, I'll be waiting

This could be the one last chance to make you understand
And I just can't let you leave me once again, yeah

I'd do anything
Just to hold you in my arms
To try to make you laugh
'Cause somehow I can't put you in the past
I'd do anything
Just to fall asleep with you
Will you remember me?
'Cause I know I won't forget you

I close my eyes
And all I see is you
I close my eyes
I try to sleep, I can't forget you
Na na na, na na na
And I'd do anything for you
Na na na, na na na, na

I'd do anything
Just to hold you in my arms
To try to make you laugh
'Cause somehow I can't put you in the past
I'd do anything
Just to fall asleep with you
To fall asleep with you
With you, yeah

I'd do anything
To fall asleep with you
I'd do anything
There's nothing I won't do (I'd do anything)
To fall asleep with you (I'd do anything)
'Cause I know I won't forget you

Working for a living just sucks, even when you're just out of school and life is basically pretty good even when you're miserable, because at least you don't have to go to school and do schoolwork anymore.
It's a shame that youth is wasted on school and work, even though work beats school by about a billion percent because at least it pays money--which I spent a small amount of on CDs and bags of weed, probably the only two things I ever spent my paychecks on that were really worth working hard for!! ;)

@@legendindamakin5007 No doubt man, if you already feel that way at 16, then your life probably isn't going to be 100% "normal" :)
It's good to think about life, it's bad to use thinking about it as an excuse to not do much with it.
In some ways, normal 9-5 type employment is good, because it's comfortable and everyone is in the same boat, but man oh man is it ever a major drag when you don't feel like living much because you're working all the time, and your off-work time (aka "your life") is just spent either partying or vegetating. It's pretty common for young people just out of school because they're burnt from all those years in school, and are sick of it all already at a very young age, and just want to work, buy things, and maybe get high and/or laid.
At least you're thinking about your life though, or just thinking in general, and that's not easy after being in school all those years :)
