Accentuate the Positive

Gather around me, everybody gather around me
 While I testify, I feel the summer coming on me
 And the topic will be same, that's what I'm against
 If you wanna hear my story then just chill out
 Don't be uptight while I review the attitude of doing right
 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 that minimum
 Have faith, a pandemonium
 Libel to walk up on the scene
 To illustrate my last remark
 Talking about Jonah in the Whale, Noah in the arc
 What did they do
 When everything looked so dark?
 Then 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"
 To illustrate my last remark
 Talking about Jonah in the Whale, Noah in the arc
 What did they do
 When everything looked so dark?
 Then they said
 "We better accentuate the positive
 Eliminate all the negative
 Latch on to the affirmative
 Don't mess with mister in between, oh
 Don't mess with mister in between"
 Don't you ever mess with mister inbetween
 Don't you mess with mister inbetween
 Don't you mess with mister inbetween
