Lyrics:

Accentuate the positive,
Eliminate the negative,
Accentuate the positive, an' latch on

You gotta accentuate the positive,
Eliminate the negative,
An' latch on
To the affirmative
Don't mess with Mister in-between

You gotta spread joy up to the maximum,
Bring gloom down to the minimum,
An' have faith - amen
Or pandemonium's
Liable to walk upon the scene!

To illustrate
My last remark
Jonah in the whale
Noah in the arc
An' what did they do - what did they do?
Just when everything looked so dark?
What did they, what did they, what did they do?

Man, they said
You better accentuate the positive,
Eliminate the negative,
An' latch on
To the affirmative
Don't mess with Mister in-between
No, don't mess with Mister inbetween

To illustrate
His last remark
Jonah in the whale
Noah in the arc
An' what did they do
What did they do?
Just when everything looked so dark?
What did they do (2x)

Man, they said
You better accentuate the positive,
Eliminate the negative,
An' latch on
To the affirmative
Don't mess with Mister in-between
No, don't mess with Mister inbetween

No, don't you mess with Mister inbetween
No, don't mess with Mister in-between
