Ac-cent-tchu-ate the Positive

You've got to accentuate the positive

Eliminate the negative

And latch on to the affirmitive

But don't mess with mister inbetween

You've got to spread joy up to the maximum

Bring gloom down to the minumum

Have faith, a pandemonium

Libel to walk up on 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

And they said we better

Accentuate the positive

Eliminate the negative

And latch on to the affimitive

But don't mess with mister in between

You've got to accentuate the positive

Eliminate the negative

And latch on to the affirmitive

But don't mess with mister inbetween

You've got to spread joy up to the maximum

Bring gloom down to the minumum

Have faith, a pandemonium

Libel to walk up on 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

And they said we better

Accentuate the positive

Eliminate the negative

And latch on to the affimitive

But don't mess with mister in between

No, don't mess with mister in between

(One more time)

To illustrate my last remark

Jonah in the Whale, Noah in the ark

What did they do

Just when everything looked so dark

And they said we better

Accentuate the positive

Eliminate the negative

And latch on to the affimitive

But don't mess with mister in between

No, don't mess, don't mess

No, don't mess with mister in between

(One more once)

To illustrate my last remark

Jonah in the Whale, Noah in the ark

What did they do

Just when everything looked so dark

And they said we better

Accentuate the positive

Eliminate the negative

And latch on to the affimitive

But don't mess with mister in between

No, no don't mess

Don't mess, oh don't mess with mister in between
