Anyhow, Anyhow is a song from the film Shock Treatment, with lyrics and music by Richard O'Brien and Richard Hartley, released in 1981 on the film album.
Several songs from the film were originally written for Rocky Horror Shows His Heels, a never-made sequel to The Rocky Horror Picture Show. The songs were rewritten for the never-made The Brad and Janet Show and once again for Shock Treatment. Some of these songs also appeared in the 2015 musical Shock Treatment: The Musical.

Brad Majors:
Some people do it for compassion
Janet Majors:
Some people do it for the fashion
Brad:
Some people do it to be funny
Janet:
Some people do it for the money
Oliver Wright:
Some people do it for enslavement
Betty Hapschatt:
Some people do it on the pavement
Oliver:
But
Brad, Janet, Oliver & Betty:
We're going to do it anyhow, anyhow
We're going to do it anyhow, anyhow
We're going to do it
No matter how the wind is blowing
We're going to do it anyhow, anyhow
We're going to do it anyhow, anyhow
We're going to do it
We just gotta keep going
Brad & Janet:
Some people do it for each other
Oliver & Betty:
Some people do it for their lover
Brad & Janet:
Some people do it for improvement
Oliver & Betty:
Some people do it for the movement
Brad & Janet:
Some people do it for enjoyment
Oliver & Betty:
Some people do it for employment
Oliver:
But
Brad, Janet, Oliver & Betty:
We're going to do it anyhow, anyhow
We're going to do it anyhow, anyhow
We're going to do it
No matter how the wind is blowing

We're going to do it anyhow, anyhow
We're going to do it anyhow, anyhow

Denton, Denton, you've got no pretension
You're where the heart is, you're OK
Denton, Denton, you've got no pretension
You're the acceptable face - of the human race
You're Denton, Denton, U.S.A.
