Lyrics AC-Cent-Tchu-Ate the Positive - Peggy Lee

You got to ac-cent-tchu-ate the positive
And eliminate the negative
And latch on to the affirmative
And don t mess with mister in-between
You gotta spread joy up to the maximum
And bring blue down to the minimum
And have faith or pandemonium is 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 better ac-cent-tchu-ate the positive
And eliminate the negative
And latch on to the affirmative
And don t mess with mister in-between

You gotta spread joy up to the maximum
And bring blue down to the minimum
And have faith or pandemonium is 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 the said we better ac-cent-tchu-ate the positive
And eliminate the negative
And latch on to the affirmative
And don t mess with mister in-between
No, don t mess with mister in-between
