Accentuate the Positive by Nellie McKay Lyrics

Genre: pop | Year: 2019

You've got to accent-tuate the positive
Elim-minate the negative
Latch on to the affirmative
Don't mess with Mr. In-Between

You 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 and the whale
Noah and the ark
What did they do
Just when everything looked so dark?
Man, they said, we'd better

Accent-tuate the positive
Elim-minate the negative
Latch on to the affirmative
Don't mess with Mr. In-Between
No, don't mess with Mr. In-Between
To illustrate
My last remark
Jonah and the whale
Noah and the ark
What did they do
Just when everything looked so dark?
Man, they said, we'd better

Aaaaaah-ccentuate the positive
Elim-minate the negative
Latch on to the affirmative
Don't mess with Mr. In-Between
No, don't mess with Mr. In-Between

Nice hat!
