Anything Goes/Anything You Can Do from Anything Goes/Annie Get Your Gun is a mash-up featured in The Purple Piano Project, the first episode of Season Three. It is sung at the interest meeting for NYADA by some NYADA Hopefuls with Harmony singing lead. 

As Rachel and Kurt attempt to perform Ding-Dong! The Witch Is Dead, certain they will scare them away and blast out the roof with their talent, they are surprised by the NYADA Hopefuls who strongly resemble both Rachel and Kurt in terms of personality and looks. They take a seat and watch the performance, shocked and in awe. After the performance, Rachel and Kurt cry in the car due to the talent they saw, thinking their talents would be much greater. 

Lyrics[]

Harmony:
Times have changed,
And we've often rewound the clock,
Since the Puritans got a shock,
When they landed on Plymouth Rock.
If today, any shock they should try to stem,
'Stead of landing on Plymouth Rock,
Plymouth Rock would land on them.

Harmony with NYADA Hopefuls:
In olden days a glimpse of stocking
Was looked on as something shocking,
But now God knows, Anything Goes.
Good authors too who once knew better words,
Now only use four letter words
Writing prose, Anything Goes.

Harmony (NYADA Hopefuls):
Anything you can be, I can be greater
Sooner or later, I'm greater than you (No, you're not)
Yes, I am (No, you're not)
Yes, I am (No, you're not!)
Yes, I am (No)
Yes, I am! (No!)

NYADA Hopefuls (Harmony):
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
Any note you can hold
I can hold longer (I can hold any note longer than you)
No, you can't (Yes, I can)
No, you can't (Yes, I can)
No, you can't (Yes, I can)

Harmony:
Yes, I

NYADA Hopefuls:
In olden days a glimpse of stocking
Was looked on as something shocking,
But now, God knows,
Anything Goes.

Harmony (NYADA Hopefuls):
Yes! (No!)
I (You!)
Can! (Can't)

NYADA Hopefuls:
Anything goes!
