Ac-cen-tuate the Positive (Mister In-Between) |
| Gather 'round me, everybody |
| Gather 'round me while I’m preachin' |
| 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 |
| The 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 Mister In-Between |
| You’ve got to spread joy up to the maximum |
| Bring gloom down to the minimum |
| Have faith or pandemonium’s |
| 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'd better accentuate the positive») |
| («Eliminate the negative») |
| («And latch on to the affirmative») |
| Don’t mess with Mister In-Between (No!) |
| Don’t mess with Mister In-Between |
| (Ya got to spread joy up to the maximum) |
| (Bring gloom down to the minimum) |
| (Have faith or pandemonium’s) |
| (Liable to walk upon the scene) |
| You got to ac (yes, yes) -cent-tchu-ate the positive |
| Eliminate (yes, yes) the negative |
| And latch (yes, yes) on to the affirmative |
| Don’t mess with Mister In-Between |
| No, don’t mess with Mister In-Between |
