Accenttchuate The Positive lyrics

Gather `round me, everybody,
Gather round me,
While I preach some,
Feel a sermon
Comin` on me;
The topic will be sin,
And that`s what I`m ag`in`;
If you wanna hear my story,
Then settle back and just sit tight,
While I start reviewin`
The attitude of doin` right.

You`ve got to accentuate the positive,
Eliminate the negative,
And latch on to the affirmative,
Don`t mess with Mr. Inbetween.

You got to spread joy up to the maximum,
Bring gloom down to the minimum,
Have faith, or pandemonium
Liable to walk upon the scene.

To illustrate
My last remark:
Jonah in the whale,
Noah in the arc,
What did they do
Just when everything looked so dark?

Man, they said we better
Accentuate the positive,
Eliminate the negative,
And latch on to the affirmative,
Don`t mess with Mr. Inbetween.
No, don`t mess with Mr. Inbetween.

You`ve got to spread joy up to the maximum,
Bring gloom down to the minimum,
Have faith, or pandemonium
Liable to walk upon the scene.

You got to accentuate the positive,
Eliminate the negative,
And latch on to the affirmative,
Don`t mess with Mr. Inbetween.
No, don`t mess with Mr. Inbetween!
