Anything Goes
Guns N' Roses Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Thinkin' 'bout sex
Always hungry for somethin'
That I haven't had yet
Well maybe baby, you got somethin' to lose
Well I got somethin'
I got somethin' for you
Anything goes tonight
My way, your way
Anything goes
Panties round your knees
With your ass in debris
Doing that grind
With a push and a squeeze
Tied up, tied down
Up against the wall
Be my rubbermade baby
And we can do it all
My way, your way
Anything goes tonight
My way, your way
Anything goes tonight
My way, your way
Anything goes tonight
My way, your way
Anything goes tonight
My way, your way
Anything goes tonight
My way, your way
Anything goes tonight
My way, your way
Anything goes tonight
My way, your way
Anything goes tonight
My way, your way
Anything goes tonight, tonight
Tonight
Anything goes tonight, whoa
Anything goes tonight

I want you to take off your underwear
With your ass in debris
You are free to do as you choose
Doing that grind
I want to dance together in a way that is provocative
With a push and a squeeze
I want to hold you close and push against you
Tied up, tied down
I want to have sex that includes all forms of bondage
Up against the wall
I want to have sex against the wall
Be my rubbermade baby
I want you to be my sexual servant
And we can do it all
And we can perform any sexual act we want
Anything goes tonight
I am willing to do anything tonight
