Accentuate The Positive Lyrics
Accentuate The Positive - Artie Shaw
Gather around me everybody gather around me
While I'm preachin'
Feel a sermon comin' on me
The topic will be sin and that's what I'm again
Settle back and just sit tight
Got back same
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 the minimum have faith
Or pandemonium's 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'd better accentuate
To at 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
Those last remarks
Jonah in the whale Noah in the ark
What did they do just when everything looked so dark
Man they said we'd 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
