ACCENTUATE THE POSITIVE

You’ve got to ac-cent-tchu-ate the positive
E-limi-nate the negative
Latch on to the affirmative
Don’t mess with Mr. In-Between

You’ve got to spread joy up to the maximum
Bring gloom down to the minimum
Have faith, or pandemonium
Is liable to walk upon the scene

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

Man, they said we better
Ac-cent-tchu-ate the positive
E-limi-nate the negative
Latch on to the affirmative
Don’t mess with Mr. In-Between
No, do not mess with Mr. In-Between!
