Ac-cent-tchu-ate the Positive |
| You’ve got to accentuate the positive |
| Eliminate the negative |
| Latch on to the affirmative |
| Don’t mess with Mister In-Between |
| 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 |
| (To illustrate his 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 |
| Accentuate the positive |
| Eliminate the negative |
| Latch on to the affirmative |
| Don’t mess with Mister In-Between |
| No, do not mess with Mister In-Between |
| Do you hear me, hmm? |
| (Oh, listen to me children and-a you will hear |
| About the elininatin' of the negative |
| And the accent on the positive) |
| And gather 'round me children if you’re willin' |
| And sit tight while I start reviewin' |
| The attitude of doin' right |
| (You've gotta accentuate the positive |
| Eliminate the negative |
| Latch on to the affirmative |
| Don’t mess with Mister In-Between) |
| You’ve got to spread joy (up to the maximum) |
| Bring gloom (down) down to the minimum |
| Otherwise (otherwise) pandemonium |
| Liable to walk upon the scene |
| To illustrate (well illustrate) my last remark (you got the floor) |
| Jonah in the whale, Noah in the ark |
| What did they say (what did they say) |
| Say when everything looked so dark |
| Man, they said we better |
| Accentuate the positive |
| Eliminate the negative |
| Latch on to the affirmative |
| Don’t mess with Mister In-Between |
| No! |
| Don’t mess with Mister In-Between |
