Ac-Cent-Tchu-Ate The Positive

Ac-Cent-Tchu-Ate The Positive - Ella Fitzgerald (埃拉·菲茨傑拉德)

Gather 'round me everybody

Gather 'round me while I preach some

Feel a sermon coming on here

The topic will be sin

And that's what I'm aging

If you wanna hear my story

Then settle back and just sit tight

While I start reviewing

The attitude of doing right

You got to ac-cent-tchu-ate the positive

E-lim-i-nate 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 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

E-lim-i-nate 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

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

E-lim-i-nate the negative

Latch on to the affirmative

Don't mess with mister in between

No don't mess with mister in between
