Various Artists - Ac-Cent-Tchu-Ate the Positive lyrics

[Intro] Gather 'round me, everybody Gather 'round me while I preach some I feel a sermon comin' on me The topic will be sin And that's what I'm against If you wanna hear my story Then settle back and just sit tight While I start reviewing The attitude of doing right [Chorus] You got to ac-cent-tchu-ate the positive And e-lim-i-nate the negative And latch on to the affirmative And don't mess with Mister In-Between [Verse 1] 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 [Verse 2] 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 [Chorus] Ac-cent-tchu-ate the positive And e-lim-i-nate the negative And latch on to the affirmative And don't mess with Mister In-Between [Verse 3] 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 [Chorus] Ac-cent-tchu-ate the positive And e-lim-i-nate the negative And latch on to the affirmative And don't mess with Mister In-Between No don't mess with mister In-Between Baby, don't mess with Mister In-Between
