Ac-cent-tchu-ate The Positive Lyrics - Singles - Bing Crosby

You got to accentuate the positive 

Eliminate the negative 

Latch on to the affirmative 

Don't mess with Mister In-between 

You 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"

Do you hear me, hm? 

(Oh, listen to me chil'ren and-a you will hear 

About the eliminatin' of the negative and the accent on the positive) 

And gather 'round me chil'ren, if you're willin', and sit tight 

While I start reviewin' the attitude of doin' it right 

(You've got to accentuate the positive 

Eliminate the negative 

Latch on to the affirmative 

Don't mess with Mister in-between)
