Anything Goes
Dc Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Got a taste of a rocking band,
Standing there holding out your hand,
Better lock up all your doors,
She's like a spinning dynamo,
You're handing out the token prize,
Giving you a brand new ride,

Oh there she goes, she goes,
And nobody knows where she goes,

Banging drums, working out all fast,
Heavy tune I can play it loud,
You know she's blowing away all the others,
You're never man enough take it on all night,
You better razzle dazzle on that stage,
Keep on rocking all through the night,

Oh there she goes, she goes,
And nobody knows,
Where she goes she goes,

A heavy rocking tune is playing,
Playing as the night rolls on,
Sneaking off with the Romeo,
Where she goes, nobody knows

A heavy rocking tune is playing on a flat screen color TV,
Sneaking over creepy crawly, never give it up to take it out through the night,





There she goes she goes, and nobody knows [Repeat: x4]
Where she goes she goes

Overall Meaning

The song "Anything Goes" by AC/DC is a classic rock anthem, full of energy and power. Although its lyrics are quite simple, they convey a sense of excitement and unpredictability that is characteristic of the rock n' roll lifestyle. The song begins with a description of a "rocking band" and the lead singer's charisma - "Got a taste of a rocking band, standing there holding out your hand, better lock up all your doors, she's like a spinning dynamo."


The lyrics then transition into a more general celebration of rock music, with references to "banging drums" and "heavy tunes" that can be played "loud." The chorus repeats the phrase "there she goes" multiple times, emphasizing the idea that the lead singer is a wild card - "and nobody knows where she goes." The final verse introduces a romantic element, with the lead singer sneaking off with a Romeo-like figure, adding a layer of danger and drama to the song's narrative.


Overall, "Anything Goes" is a classic example of the raw, rebellious spirit that has defined rock n' roll for decades. With its catchy hooks, driving rhythm, and memorable chorus, it's easy to see why the song has remained a fan favorite for so long.

I've always been amazed...astounded by Brian's shrill and screechy singing. When you hear him talk he has a deep and husky voice. Fckn incredible how he pulls it off. On even par with Axl Rose in that respect...can't even think of any others that can do it
